I've had about 12 since I was 16 (11 years ago) - Should I list them all and the result. Its pretty much all speeding. One is a seat belt violation that was actually speeding that the cop bumped down to be nice - should I report what this really was or what I was charged with? I think I have one that was speeding and running a red light or stop sign or something.... I can get my driving record and cut and paste it all... but do they <i>really</i> care that much. I'm guessing they care a little since they asked but how much is enough?
I've reported my one traffic violation (I'm lucky/good at talking my way out of tickets... errr I mean I never speed ever) on a few schools, and not on a few others. I don't report on the ones that say to omit minor traffic violations, but otherwise I just report. In general, err on the side of reporting.

I just said something along the lines of "On X date, I received a ticket for X in X location. On X date, the ticket was dismissed."
Allllright.... I guess I'll just do that too. And trust me, it would be a lot more than the 12 if ALL the times I was pulled over I was actually ticketed...I'm of course only doing it on apps that don't say to omit traffic violations. But I will say that in HS I had a speeding problem. However, now I think it has more to do with how much I drive for work. I bought a car brand new in '08 and it now has almost 160,000 miles on it. And one of the past 6 years I didn't drive it almost all year because I was driving rentals for work. Even though I speed less often being on the road so much means that i'm more likely to get caught when I do. MY GOAL IN LIFE IS TO NOT EVER DRIVE AGAIN!!!!!!

Let's do 8 because sometimes my commute sucks

Also, I'm currently applying to two schools with no fee waivers. The number in my LSAC shopping cart hurts.

Unrelated, but I like how every single app so far has asked whether or not I'm cool with schools texting me. do schools actually do this? I think I'd really like it tbh if I got a text from some law school dean being like "you're in! oh and here's a bunch of money too! ttyl"

I like active! Kind of hoping we all get in the same places and can have some TLS meet ups and ASW's!
