I disagree. I listed everything, even stuff that was 15 years old and I had to guess about the place, infraction and disposition. They are just looking at honesty. If they question a ticket 10 years old in the interview, it is a great opportunity to show that you are doing your best to be honest and that it was a dumb thing you did as a teenager/twenties etc. This is all they care about.
