Happy New Year guys.

This question might be stupid...but I am going to submit my citizenship application in late Jan, and I have JUST got a BC traffic offence violation ticket for speeding and changing lane without signals. Gonna pay the fines tomorrow at an ICBC office before I return to Toronto for study :-[

I wonder if this violation ticket will negatively influence my citizenship application....

No, it will have no effect as those are not criminal code offences.

Dangerous driving falls into section 249 of the criminal code. The two for mine are section 159 and 161 on an offence act....I think I am safe. Thank you for the link. :D
