Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your ID

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio requires identity verification before you start. Takes a few minutes to set up, and then the course is ready to begin. No waiting for approval from a third party.

Complete the Course Material

Work through text and image-based lessons covering driver attitude, alcohol and drug content, and traffic safety. A quiz follows each lesson. Ohio mandates a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your required hours.

Pass the Exam and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided final exam is 40 multiple-choice questions. You need a 75% to pass and have two attempts, one per calendar day. Finish in 8 hours minimum. Pass and your BMV Form 5789 certificate downloads instantly as a PDF.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or an under-21 alcohol offense, the clock is running. For drivers banking a 2-point credit, the next ticket could push the total past 12 and trigger a suspension before the credit is in place. Ohio also gives you 30 days from enrollment to finish. Miss that window and the state requires a reinstatement fee and a full restart from lesson one.

Approved for Wood County and Weston Drivers

TrafficSchool.net is operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, a state-approved Ohio driver training school recognized by the Ohio Department of Public Safety. The course satisfies current Ohio BMV requirements for all five state-recognized remedial course situations, including court orders from Wood County courts.

Questions Weston Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five groups of licensed Ohio drivers qualify under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 and Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them over the limit. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for reaching 12 or more points in two years. Third, drivers with a court order requiring the remedial program. Fourth, drivers age 19 or older reinstating due to a juvenile suspension that happened before age 18. Fifth, drivers reinstating after an under-21 alcohol-related suspension. Court-ordered completions do not generate a 2-point credit. As a Weston resident, confirm which category applies by checking your BMV notice or Wood County court paperwork before enrolling.

Does finishing the course remove points from my Ohio record?

No. Only an Ohio court can remove points from a driving record. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course applies a 2-point credit under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037, which acts as a cushion against future accumulation. If you currently have 8 points and earn the credit, the BMV treats your record as if it has 6 points going forward. Existing violations and their points stay on the record. The credit is valid for three years, can be used once every three years, and has a lifetime cap of five uses. For Weston drivers close to 12 points, banking the credit before the next ticket is the practical move. Submit BMV Form 5789 to the Bowling Green BMV branch after passing.

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

Ohio requires that you complete the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course within 30 days of enrollment, per Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06. Miss that deadline and two things happen: the state requires you to pay a reinstatement fee, and you must restart the entire course from lesson one. Your previous progress does not carry over. For drivers reinstating a suspended license, this also means the suspension continues until the new attempt is completed and the certificate is submitted. Weston drivers dealing with a Wood County court order face the same restart requirement. Mark your enrollment date on a calendar and treat the 30-day cutoff as a hard stop, not a suggestion. Enroll only when you have the time to finish.

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

Pass the final exam and BMV Form 5789 generates as a downloadable PDF immediately. No waiting for mail. No processing delay. For a 2-point credit, submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. Weston residents can visit the Wood County Deputy Registrar in Bowling Green or mail it to the BMV per current Ohio BMV requirements. For a court-ordered case, submit the certificate directly to the Wood County Clerk of Courts, located at the Wood County Courthouse on South Grove Street in Bowling Green, roughly 20 miles from Weston. Confirm submission requirements with the court before you go, since some judges want the original and some accept a copy. Either way, the certificate is in your hands the same day you pass.

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. Fail both attempts and the course resets entirely. You start over from lesson one, and the 30-day completion window restarts from that point. Lesson quizzes between sections have unlimited free retakes and do not count against you. The final exam is the only part with the two-attempt limit. Read through the driver attitude and alcohol and drug sections carefully before attempting the exam. Those two content areas make up at least half the curriculum per ODPS requirements, and the exam reflects that weight.

Is there still an in-person classroom option near Weston, and does it matter which format I choose?

In-person classroom sessions for the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course do exist in Ohio, but finding a scheduled session near Weston in Wood County takes real effort. The nearest options typically require a drive to Bowling Green or further. Both formats satisfy the same Ohio Department of Public Safety requirements under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, so the certificate you get carries the same weight regardless of format. The practical difference is schedule control. Online through TrafficSchool.net, operated by OnlineTrafficEducation.com, lets you work through the material across multiple days within the 30-day window, with progress saving automatically after each section. For most Weston drivers juggling work and family, that matters. Check current Ohio BMV requirements to confirm your specific situation qualifies before enrolling in either format.
