no. a driving offense is a violation. a crime is defined as a misdemeanor or felony. if you were arrested for dwi, vehicular manslaughter. etc a moving violation summons will not equal a crime. a criminal court summons will ( I don't know what it would be called where you live but you would have to answer in criminal court not traffic court)

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aOgpe

Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.

You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

It depends on what the driving offense is If for example your drove a stolen car then that is a criminal conviction If however you just went over the speed limit and paid your fine then that is a civil matter But if you went over the speed limit and didn't pay your fine and then got took to court for driving with out due care and attention then that is a criminal convocation. I suggest you contact the local police department and ask them - either that or contact your local Embassy/Consulate or High Commission and ask them as they also should be able to tell you.

Criminal offences are spelt out in the Penal code of the Country. Normally intention (mens rea) to cause damage to property/body of others, is an essential ingredient of the crime but not of traffic offence.

There are driving histories and there are criminal histories. They are separated, however, if the application asks you that question, then you should answer it truthfully. Chances are they only want to know about the criminal part when it comes to theft or drug use. Theft and drug use go hand in hand. If the job you are applying for requires you to drive, then the driving history will also be important for the employer and their insurance company.

Some traffic offenses are also classified as "Criminal Offenses", because of the nature of said "offense". Examples are: "Vehicular Negligent Homicide", "Hit & Run Driving", "Reckless Operation of a Motor Vehicle", and "Driving While Impaired", to name a few. A three point traffic offense would not constitute a classification of a "Criminal Conviction".

I hope this helps.
