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 check is required under current Ohio BMV requirements before any coursework begins. Wayne County residents use the same enrollment process as any Ohio county.

Work Through the Course Lessons

Complete text and image-based interactive lessons with a quiz after each section. Your progress saves automatically on the server after every section, so you can log out and return without losing ground. A 10-minute break is required after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total.

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 get two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it and you immediately download BMV Form 5789. The course meets the state-mandated 8 hours minimum required by ODPS under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For 12-point suspension cases and court-ordered drivers, nothing changes until the certificate lands at the BMV or the Wayne County Clerk of Courts. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, one more ticket can push a record past 12 points and trigger a suspension that did not have to happen. Ohio law also gives you a hard 30-day window from enrollment. Miss it and you restart from zero and pay again. Get this handled now.

Wayne County Drivers Ask These Questions First

Who has to take the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course, and what is the difference between a court order and a 2-point credit?

Five groups of Ohio drivers take this course under current ODPS guidelines. Drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 must complete it before the BMV restores their license. Drivers with a court order complete it because a judge required it, and no 2-point credit applies in that situation. Drivers aged 19 or older with a juvenile suspension from before age 18 also qualify, as do drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension. The fifth group takes the course voluntarily to bank a 2-point credit before a ticket pushes their record toward suspension. Wayne County drivers in any of these situations enroll at TrafficSchool.net and submit BMV Form 5789 to the BMV or the Wayne County Clerk of Courts.

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

The 2-point credit creates a cushion on your record. It does not erase existing points or remove any violation from your history. Only an Ohio court can remove points from a record. Under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, the BMV applies a 2-point credit when you submit BMV Form 5789 after completing the course. That credit stays on your record for three years and offsets future points if you pick up another ticket. You can use this credit once every three years and up to five times in your lifetime. Drivers sitting at 8 or 9 points on their Wayne County record who bank the credit buy themselves real room before the next ticket triggers a 12-point suspension. Submit your certificate to the Wooster BMV Deputy Registrar office to get the credit applied.

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

Ohio law sets a hard 30-day completion window from the date you enroll, per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that deadline and the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee and start the entire course over from the beginning. Your previous progress does not carry forward. For Wayne County drivers on a court deadline or trying to reinstate a suspended license, that delay has real consequences: your license stays suspended and the court requirement stays open. Mark your enrollment date on your calendar the day you sign up. The course saves your progress automatically after each section, so there is no technical reason to miss the window. Log in consistently across the 30 days and finish well before the deadline.

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

You get BMV Form 5789 as a downloadable digital PDF the moment you pass the final exam. There is no waiting period and no mail delay. Where you send it depends on why you took the course. Drivers completing the course for a 2-point credit or 12-point suspension reinstatement submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. The Wayne County Deputy Registrar office, located in Wooster, can accept documentation and assist with BMV submissions. Drivers completing a court-ordered course submit the certificate directly to the Wayne County Clerk of Courts. Confirm the submission address with your attorney or the court before you submit. Per current Ohio BMV requirements, the certificate must reach the correct office to close your case.

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 and current ODPS course requirements, you get two attempts total, and you can only take one attempt per calendar day. Fail the first attempt on a Monday and your earliest second attempt is Tuesday. Pass on the second attempt and you get your certificate immediately. 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 between sections have unlimited free retakes and are designed to prepare you for the final. Wayne County drivers who work through each quiz carefully before moving on tend to reach the final exam in better shape. Do not rush the quizzes.

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

No. Completing the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course does not remove any existing points or violations from your record. Only an Ohio court has the authority to remove points under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. What the course does is apply a 2-point credit to your record when you submit BMV Form 5789 to the BMV. That credit acts as a buffer against future points for three years. A driver sitting at 7 points in Wayne County who earns the credit effectively has 5 points working against them when the next ticket comes in. For 12-point suspension reinstatement cases, completing the course is a required step to get the license restored, but it does not wipe the record clean. Submit your certificate to the Wooster Deputy Registrar and confirm the credit was applied.
