Do Unpaid Traffic Tickets Expire? No, unpaid traffic tickets don't expire.

It doesn't matter the length of time, unpaid traffic tickets don't expire and go away.
Generally, unpaid parking tickets do not show up on your credit report. Credit reports focus on financial accounts and transactions, such as credit cards, loans, and mortgages.
