ok I know everyone's sick of this topic, but I need help plz
This is about traffic tickets!
I know I know, you are so sick of stupid people who keep asking this, but I am confused about some points..
So, when the app says exclude "minor traffic violation", what CONSTITUTES as minor traffic violation?
Is running the STOP sign minor traffic violation? I ordered my driving record, but haven't got it yet.
I have like 8 tickets in the last 6 years
some speeding, some forgetting to carry my driver license, some running the STOP sign.
Suppose I just disclose all of them,
Do I just send them a word document listing all of these and just explain what happened??
Thanks for the help guys!!

It certainly won't hurt you to do so.atkpl wrote:Suppose I just disclose all of them,
Just upload an addendum that lists the general date, place, offense, and resolution. No explanation needed.atkpl wrote:Do I just send them a word document listing all of these and just explain what happened??

The majority of apps. I have filled out specify that minor = fine of less than $200.

When in doubt, disclose. It can't hurt.

Thanks so much,
so when I get my driving record, is it gonna tell me if specific violation is whether minor violation or not?

No. "Minor violation" is completely subjective unless the school specifies. So either call the school for clarification, disclose to be on the safe side (the school won't care), or don't disclose (the school won't care, but it's theoretically possible C&F might).

To be fair, my standard response of posting a picture of the search button is not a valid one at the moment.

Can't you just scan your driving record and attach it to an addendum if you're unsure?

So just so I'm 100% clear.... If the little paragraph doesn't say "excluding minor traffic violations" I need to check the "I've been punished for being a criminal" box and write an addendum if I have a moving violation that resulted in a $120 ticket?

The best thing to do is to contact the admissions office of the school you're asking about.

I just feel like its a little silly to have to mark the same box as people who have committed felonies or had some serious run ins with the law. And I have to check the same box as students who have plagiarized, passed out in the bushes on campus, or failed out of school because I was in a dorm room where someone had an open beer can on their desk.
