Do you mean "How long does it take to complete the course to become a traffic officer?" If that is your question, then the answer is simple.

It takes as long as it would take to become an official police officer, because it is fully 'badged' police officers who direct, and re-direct traffic when lights go out and so forth.

Police officers in my state usually have a full 4 yr. Bachelors Degree. Once in a great while, someone with two years of Junior college and some years of military service gets accepted in the academy too.

Once in the Police academy, it is 16 weeks of pretty intensive classroom and field training. After that, you would become a rookie cop and probably assigned to traffic issues. In my state, that would involve directing traffic around accidents, making accident reports, and just generally keeping things flowing smoothly. This is often done in the middle of a five-way intersection at 4:00 PM on an August afternoon while it is 114 outside! (And we wonder why cops sometimes have an attitude?)

Can you become a correctional officer with traffic tickets?

As long as you've paid the tickets, there is nothing in such offenses to disqualify a person from working as a Corrections Officer-- although rules regarding these matters vary from state to state. What's most important, of course, is the types of traffic offenses for which the tickets were issued. Driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI) are pretty serious traffic tickets and can have an adverse effect on some employment opportunities. Provided that any tickets of this sort are isolated, they are not likely to prevent your occupational pursuit, but your best course of action would be to enroll in any "traffic school" courses offered by your State Police.
