Default "Traffic Violation" Question on SWA App

This is for Ms. Lori Clark or any pilot who has filled out the SWA Pilot Application in the past...

I'm almost done with the application and under "TSA Info" it asks,

"At any time, have you EVER been convicted or have pled guilty to a traffic violation? [Such a conviction may not necessarily disqualify an applicant from employment]"

Is this question inferring about accidents, speeding tickets, etc. I'm afraid to put yes, without first visiting my friendly neighborhood DMV and picking up a copy of my driving record so that I can be exact with the date(s) and cities that they are asking for. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

I do believe it includes any moving violation, so speeding, stop sign, etc. When I filled it out I just put approximate dates and locations. I did get called for an interview, no 737 type, so it must not have been an issue.

Dont forget that when they pull your driving record their report may go further back than the report you can get from the DMV. Its a good idea to list the last 10 years in my opinion even though your report will only show about half of that.
