Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account, upload a valid government-issued photo ID, and confirm you are the licensed Ohio driver completing the course. This identity verification step is required by the state before you access any course material. Tuscarawas County residents have used a state ID or Ohio driver license to clear this in under five minutes.

Work Through the Course Lessons

The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course covers driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and general traffic safety across interactive text and image-based lessons. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Your progress saves automatically after every section, so you can log out and pick back up without losing ground.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass, and you have two attempts - one per calendar day. Finish the required 8 hours of instruction, pass the exam, and your BMV Form 5789 certificate downloads instantly as a PDF so you can submit it to the BMV or Tuscarawas County court the same day.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For suspension and court-ordered cases, nothing changes on your record until the certificate lands at the BMV or courthouse. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on a record already sitting at 8 or 10 points can push you straight into a 12-point suspension. Ohio also gives you a hard 30-day window from enrollment. Miss it and you restart from zero and pay the reinstatement fee again. The Tuscarawas County Deputy Registrar in New Philadelphia cannot process your reinstatement without that certificate in hand.

Tuscarawas County Drivers Ask These Questions Most

Who actually has to take the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course?

Five groups of licensed Ohio adults 18 and older qualify under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want a 2-point credit applied to their record. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for hitting 12 or more points in a two-year window. Third, drivers with a court order requiring the remedial program - no point credit applies in that case. Fourth, drivers age 19 or older clearing a juvenile suspension that happened before age 18. Fifth, drivers under 21 reinstating after an OVI or OVUAC alcohol-related suspension. Tuscarawas County residents in any of these situations can enroll through TrafficSchool.net and submit the certificate to the New Philadelphia BMV Deputy Registrar office when finished.

Does finishing the course remove points from my Ohio driving record?

Completing the course does not remove existing points from your record. Only an Ohio court can order point removal. What the course does, under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, is apply a 2-point credit that acts as a cushion against your current total. If you are sitting at 8 points and you earn the credit, the BMV treats your record as if it reflects 6 points for suspension calculation purposes. That credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and Ohio caps lifetime use at five times. The violations and points already on your record stay visible. Tuscarawas County drivers should confirm their current point total at the nearest BMV Deputy Registrar in New Philadelphia before enrolling to make sure the credit is worth pursuing right now.

What happens if I do not finish within 30 days of enrolling?

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets a hard 30-day completion window from your enrollment date. Miss that deadline and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and restart the entire course from the beginning - none of your previous progress counts. For drivers already dealing with a suspended license, that delay means more time off the road. For 2-point credit cases, it means more exposure to a suspension if another ticket hits your record in the gap. Tuscarawas County drivers should treat the enrollment date as a countdown, not a soft suggestion. Log in within the first few days, work through lessons consistently, and do not bank on finishing everything in the final week. The 30-day window is a state rule with no grace period.

How fast do I get my certificate after passing the final exam?

You get your BMV Form 5789 Certificate of Completion as an instant digital PDF download the moment you pass the final exam. There is no waiting period and no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit, you submit that certificate to the Ohio BMV - the Tuscarawas County Deputy Registrar office is located in New Philadelphia, roughly a 10-minute drive from Dover, and handles BMV transactions for county residents. For a court-ordered case, you submit the certificate directly to the court that issued the order, such as the Tuscarawas County Court of Common Pleas. As of the latest ODPS guidelines, the BMV processes the credit after receiving the completed Form 5789. Keep a digital copy for your own records after you submit.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 limits you to two attempts, and you can only take one attempt per calendar day - so if you fail on a Tuesday, your second try cannot happen until Wednesday at the earliest. Fail both attempts and the course resets completely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day completion window restarts from that point. This is not a technicality buried in fine print - it is a real outcome that has caught people off guard. Go through the lesson quizzes seriously before you sit for the final. The quizzes have unlimited free retakes and cover the same material. Tuscarawas County drivers who treat the quizzes as practice rather than obstacles tend to clear the final on the first attempt.

What does the course actually cover during those 8 hours?

The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course runs a minimum of 8 hours of instruction, with no cap on how long you can take beyond that floor. Per ODPS curriculum requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, at least 25 percent of the course covers driver attitude - how your mindset and decision-making behind the wheel contribute to crashes and violations. Another 25 percent covers alcohol, drugs, and the operation of motor vehicles, which is the section that tends to stick with you after you finish. The rest covers general traffic safety. The course uses text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections. Ohio also requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your 8-hour total. Plan your sessions accordingly so the breaks do not catch you short on time near the 30-day deadline.
