traffic tickets

From reading this forum it looks like that most applicants agree that traffic tickets should have been listed on N-400 application and at the interview one should have all the documentation.
When I was filling out my applications I remember that it specifically said that there is no need to list traffic tickets, so I didn't. I had 4-5 tickets, of which two required traffic school not to appear on my record, which I took, so my record should be clean (my insurance never went up).
So, do you think I should worry for not listing those, and should I be prepared with documentation?

Thanks,
Stoil

When did you file your petition ? An older version of the N400 made that exclusion. The current one asks you to list all citiations and documentation for traffic citations is only required if there was a fine imposed of more than $500 and if certain requirements are met.

Don't worry about it. There is no need to list any thing like that on N400, unless it is a DUI. "most Applicant" you cited in your post are actually all wrong because they interpret the instruction wrong. This includes the poster who post right beneath you.
 
I didn't list them too. But I did bring up the topic at the interview and told her that I didn't know I had to list them. Then I gave her all paperwork for those tickets, she listed them on the application and that was about it.

Don't worry, be happy. For the vast majority of people, all you have to worry about at the interview is whether or not you'll get "Congratulations, you have been approved!" box checked or "The decision can not be made at this time" box checked.
