Will a background check show that I got a speeding ticket for this even if I went to traffic school

I have several acceptances, but while interviewing, I got a camera speeding ticket and did traffic school to get it expunged. Will this come up in my background check? If so will it cause any issues with my acceptances? Other than that my record is clean.

Medical schools really don't care about minor traffic violations. Unless you were going so fast that it was a felony offense, you won't have problems with acceptance.

This will not affect you at all.

Probably will show up, but they won't care unless it's a DUI or something along those lines.

Just don't make a habit of (getting caught) speeding. I currently only have a "20+ over in a 55" on my license (total bull, I was going maybe 7o and the cop nailed the BMW going 20+ in front of me but thought it was me because radar detectors are always correct 🙄 ) and I still got in.

Get a good radar/laser detector ($400-600) range and you won't have to worry about the pigs. Saved me multiple times. The cheaper ones have a lot of false alarms and low detection range. Many of the newer ones have red light and speeding camera loctions too.

Or, like, maybe don't speed that much above the limit. There are worse things that result from speeding than just a ticket.

10-15 on the interstate is nothing. If you crash at 65+ you're going to be in a bad position anyway. Cops are just dinguses when it comes to speeding, especially when you've got OOS tags.
