If done properly, you should be able to apply for naturalization. *Naturalization Application* The Naturalization Application must be filed. If done properly, it will take a few months to receive the fingerprinting notice, and then several more months to receive the naturalization interview to obtain U.S. Citizenship. Shortly thereafter, if approved, you will have the swearing in ceremony to become a U.S. Citizen. Please note that many people find themselves getting the application denied or being placed into deportation/removal proceedings because of past conduct.

All these tickets are only infractions.

If all you have are traffic tickets, those tickets should not disqualify you from applying for citizenship.

Generally speaking traffic violations will not disqualify you from US citizenship.

They should not affect your ability to naturalize.

As long as you have not been convicted of a misdemeanor and are presently on probation, you will be okay.

Generally, no, but it could. You won't know until you have an interview and the officer decides how to exercise their discretion.
