I would like to contribute my piece to this discussion:

	It is true that employers ask if you have been convicted of a crime.
However, most applications I saw asked if you were convicted of a felony (maybe
they didn't say felony, but they said a specific level of a crime)

	I don't know if a trarric violation (speeding, etc.) would be called
arresting but I do think that if you WERE arrested and convicted (if you go
to court and made to pay) then it wouldn't be a felony or the level the
employers ask of.
