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.
I had a full background check done for a bartender job. I disclosed everything I could recall and they asked about a speeding ticket from when I was 17. Disclose everything because different back ground checks can uncover different transgressions. Good luck to you all.
