Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account, confirm you hold a valid Ohio license, and upload a government-issued photo ID. Identity verification is a state requirement before any coursework begins. Union residents in Marysville can cross-reference their eligibility at the Union County Deputy Registrar on Court Street if needed.

Work Through the Course Lessons

Text and image-based lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug impairment, and traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass it to advance. Progress saves automatically after every section, so you can log out and come back without losing ground inside the 30-day window.

Pass the Final Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided 40-question final exam requires a 75% to pass. You have two attempts, one per calendar day. Complete the required 8 hours of instruction, pass the exam, and your BMV Form 5789 certificate downloads instantly as a PDF for submission to the BMV or your court.

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 the Union County Clerk of Courts. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket on an already-loaded record can push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. The 30-day completion window from the state does not pause while you wait.

Questions Union Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

Who actually has to take this course, and what is the difference between a court order and the 2-point credit?

Five groups qualify under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06: drivers with 2 to 11 points seeking a 2-point credit, drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension, drivers with a court order, drivers 19 or older addressing a juvenile suspension from before age 18, and drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension. The key difference is purpose. A court-ordered completion satisfies a judicial requirement but does not generate a 2-point credit. The 2-point credit is a voluntary tool for drivers who want a cushion before the next ticket. Union County residents can confirm their specific situation with the Union County Clerk of Courts on Court Street in Marysville before enrolling.

What does the 2-point credit actually do for my record?

The 2-point credit does not remove existing points or erase violations from your Ohio driving record. Only an Ohio court can do that. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course applies a 2-point credit that offsets your current point total, creating a buffer before the next ticket could push you to 12 and trigger a suspension. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and you can apply it a maximum of five times in your lifetime. For a Union driver sitting at 8 or 9 points, banking that credit before the next traffic stop on US-36 is the practical move. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the BMV after passing.

What happens if I do not finish within the 30-day window?

Ohio requires completion of the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course within 30 days of enrollment, per current ODPS guidelines under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that window and the state requires you to pay the reinstatement fee again and restart the course from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry over. For drivers reinstating a suspended license, every day past that deadline is another day your license stays suspended. For 2-point credit cases, the clock keeps running on your point total while you wait. Union residents whose license is already suspended should note that the Union County Deputy Registrar on Court Street in Marysville cannot process reinstatement until the valid certificate arrives.

How fast do I get the certificate after passing the final exam, and where do I send it?

The moment you pass the final exam, the system generates your BMV Form 5789 as a digital PDF and makes it available for immediate download. No waiting period, no mailing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to any Ohio BMV location, including the Union County Deputy Registrar on Court Street in Marysville, roughly two miles from central Union. For a court-ordered case, deliver it to the Union County Clerk of Courts at the Union County Courthouse in Marysville. Per current Ohio BMV requirements, the certificate must be submitted within the timeframe your court or the BMV specifies. Getting it the same day you pass means you can handle the submission that same week.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. Under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, you get two attempts, but only one attempt per calendar day. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and you cannot try again until Tuesday. Pass on the second attempt and you get your certificate normally. Fail both attempts and the course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day completion window resets from that point. The lesson quizzes throughout the course have unlimited free retakes and exist specifically to prepare you for the final. Take them seriously. Union drivers who are already inside a tight reinstatement timeline cannot afford to burn both attempts carelessly.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove points or expunge violations from your record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, only an Ohio court has the authority to remove points. What the course does for eligible drivers is apply a 2-point credit, which reduces your active point total by two. Think of it as a buffer, not a clean slate. A driver at 9 points who earns the credit drops to 7, which means one more standard moving violation does not automatically trigger a 12-point suspension. The credit is valid for three years and can be used once every three years. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Union County Deputy Registrar in Marysville to apply it.
