No.

Fines, penalties, many court judgments and things like that are not discharged.

It is considered against the good of the public to allow someone to escape what was expected to be something they were required to do as compenasation to society or as a punitive or penalty for their actions.

And the way your asking, I suspect you may not understand the basics of bankruptcy...especially that it is not about any specific thing...but everything you owe and everything you own. (All of what you have is listed and used to pay what you owe...some things you have are exempt from being taken...some things you owe are exempt from being discharged).

The directly above may or may not be true, but it addresses things different than the original Q&A.

The first answer notes ALL ITEMS ARE INCLUDED, which may be discharged is another story. Traffic tickets, which aren't judgments...they are a fines or civil penalty may NOT be discharged under the laws. A judgment, say from the failure to pay a debt or some obligation (whether it was then used to get a secured position on property or not) or from some law suit....or even divorce action, etc....is something else. Both must be included and may be discharged....depending on a number of things including the position or priorty of the underlying debt.

Your driving record is permanent. Traffic tickets never just come off. Fortunately though. Most insurance companies only check your driving record for the last 3 to 5 years. So if a ticket is older than that they will not count it against you when determining your rates.
