In my teenage years I got tons of tickets. I even remember getting 2 speeding tickets in the same day when I was 17. I almost lost my license.
The interview people did ask about my driving history and I told them I got a lot of tickets as a new driver, but after nearly losing my license and having to pay all the fines, I slowed down. Further, I only had one in the past 8 years and nothing in 12 years prior to that.
Just be honest. I truly don't think if you forgot a single ticket 10 years ago it would be looked upon as dishonestly.....unless you were doing 50mph over the limit, citied for reckless driving, etc. If you got something like that you'd surely remember. I know some will say order driving histories from several states, etc. Though I can't fault them....I really don't think it's necessary.

I run a business and am required to pull MVR's on all of my employees. Here is what I have learned.
A state MVR will only look back the last 3 years and in most states won't show tickets from another state. Some states do go back 5 years.
An NDR may or may not show all tickets because not all states report tickets or only report tickets for certain violations
The only way to really find every ticket the last 3 years that someone has is to run an MVR for each individual state.
Beyond 3 years you may find some tickets for serious moving violations if you run certain expensive background checks that use data from the FBI. Even those reports usually will not include minor moving violations.
So what this means is you really have no clue what Delta may or may not find out about your driving record. They will have a good idea of the last 3 years in your state of residence and probably pay for an all state MVR report so they probably know everything 3 years back. Beyond that, it's hard to say what they know. If that is the case then just lay it all out for them and tell them what you have. I had a ticket for running a stop sign when I was 16 and told them knowing they would most likely never find out about it. They asked me what I learned from that ticket and I said, "Nothing....I was 16." Got some chuckles out of them and they moved on.
