That's not quite true. You can be charged and have an arrest warrant issued, and never be arrested. That happens, most often, when someone racks up a bunch of traffic tickets, and then takes care of the matter without being arrested.

You can be charged with a crime and not know it, at least for a while.

However, your advice is good for Atxgun. He was worried about tickets.

Good point! I hadn't thought about that. I think the FAQ page is pretty good at spelling out who does and does not qualify for a CHL and gives some pretty good examples to clear up any technical language.

It sounds like you have never even been arrested, is this correct? If you have never been arrested then you have never been charged. If you have never been charged you have never been convicted. If you have never been convicted, then you can get a CHL so long as you didn't just escape from the loony bin, are dopes up, behind on child support or various other things. Check out this link for the TXDPS FAQ page.
