Statutes of Limitations vary from state to state and apply only to crimes where someone has not been charged. The 'non-moving' part is irrelevent, all traffic violations are minor misdemeanors. If you have received a ticket then the question is not even about statute of limitations. For example, in Texas if you run a red light and are observed by an officer he has up to two years to file a charge (issue a ticket) against you. After that the statute of limitations prohibits the filing of that charge and you essentially 'got away with it'. However, if a ticket is issued before the statute of limitations expires you have a certain period of time (usually identified by an Appearance Date) to either pay the fine or request a court hearing. If you don't act before that time is up, the court will usually issue a warrant for your arrest (sometime a second charge of Fail to Appear will get added on). Once the warrant is issued it does not expire. Some courts will recall (nullify) very old warrants, but there are no general rules requiring the recall of old warrants. I've seen some that were 10-12 years old get served on very surprised people.
It's NOT the statute of enforcement limitations you should be worried about. If your driver's license or your vehicle tags are recorded as having unpaid tickets against them, in all likliehood, you won't be able to get them renewed until you pay the fines.
