Three Steps and You're Done

Enroll and Verify Your Identity

Create your account and upload a valid government-issued photo ID. Ohio requires identity verification before you begin. Takes a few minutes to set up, and your progress saves automatically server-side after every section so you never lose your place.

Work Through the Course

Text and image-based lessons cover driver attitude, alcohol and drug material, and Ohio traffic law. A quiz follows each lesson and you must pass to advance. Ohio requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your total hours.

Pass the Final and Get Your Certificate

The state-provided 40-question final exam requires a 75% to pass. You get two attempts, one per calendar day. Pass it, and you immediately download your BMV Form 5789 PDF. The course runs 8 hours minimum as required by ODPS - no shortcuts, no skipping ahead.

Your License Stays Suspended Until This Is Done

For drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension or clearing a court order, nothing moves forward until the Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course is complete and the certificate is submitted. For drivers banking the 2-point credit, one more ticket can push a record past 12 points and trigger a suspension. Ohio also requires you to finish within 30 days of enrollment or you pay a reinstatement fee and start over from scratch.

Accepted by the Wyandot County Clerk and Ohio BMV

The certificate you get from this course satisfies current Ohio BMV requirements under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Wyandot County residents submit court-ordered certificates to the Wyandot County Clerk of Courts in Upper Sandusky. BMV point-credit submissions go directly to the Ohio BMV.

Questions Wyandot Drivers Ask Before Enrolling

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

Five groups of Ohio drivers qualify under current ODPS guidelines. First, drivers with 2 to 11 points who want to bank a 2-point credit before the next ticket pushes them toward a suspension. Second, drivers reinstating a license suspended for hitting 12 or more points within a two-year period under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037. Third, drivers ordered by a court to complete the remedial program - no 2-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 alcohol-related OVI or OVUAC suspension. Wyandot County residents in any of these situations can enroll through TrafficSchool.net and submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV or the Wyandot County Clerk of Courts in Upper Sandusky.

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

No, and this matters. The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course applies a 2-point credit to your record under Ohio Revised Code 4510.037 - it does not erase existing points or remove violations. Think of it as a cushion. If your record sits at 8 points and you earn the 2-point credit, the BMV treats it as 6 points for suspension threshold purposes. Only an Ohio court can order points removed from a driving record. The credit is valid for three years, you can use it once every three years, and the lifetime maximum is five times. Wyandot drivers who want to bank the credit before the next ticket tips them over 12 should enroll now and submit BMV Form 5789 to the Ohio BMV after passing.

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

Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06 sets a firm 30-day completion window from the date you enroll. 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 Wyandot drivers reinstating a suspended license, that also means your license stays suspended longer. The 30-day clock does not pause for weekends or holidays. Log back into your course well before the deadline. If you are close to the cutoff and unsure of your enrollment date, check your account dashboard. Starting the course and finishing it within the window is the only way to avoid the restart penalty.

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

The moment you pass the final exam, you download your BMV Form 5789 as a digital PDF - there is no waiting period and nothing gets mailed to you. What you do with it depends on why you took the course. Drivers earning the 2-point credit submit the certificate to the Ohio BMV. Drivers completing a court order submit it to the court that issued the order - for most Wyandot County residents, that is the Wyandot County Clerk of Courts located in Upper Sandusky, roughly the county seat and about a 10-minute drive from most of the county. Drivers reinstating after a 12-point suspension submit to the BMV as part of the reinstatement process. Keep a digital copy for your records regardless of which route applies to you.

What happens if I fail the final exam?

The state-provided final exam has 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 attempt 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. The lesson quizzes throughout the course have unlimited free retakes, so use those to actually learn the material before you sit the final. Wyandot drivers who are close to the 30-day deadline when they fail both attempts should contact the course provider immediately to understand their options before the window closes.

What does the course actually cover during those 8 hours?

The Ohio Adult Remedial Driving Course runs a minimum of 8 hours of instruction as required by the Ohio Department of Public Safety - no daily cap exists on how much you complete in one sitting. Per ODPS curriculum rules under Ohio Administrative Code 4501-8-06, at least 25 percent of the course covers driver attitude and at least 25 percent covers alcohol, drugs, and the operation of motor vehicles. The rest covers Ohio traffic law, crash prevention, and related material. Ohio requires a 10-minute break after every two consecutive hours of instruction, and that break time does not count toward your 8 hours. The format is text and image-based interactive lessons with quizzes between sections - no live video streaming is involved. Wyandot drivers can log in and out as needed since progress saves automatically after each section.
