Fairview, Oregon, in Multnomah County, has about 11,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A traffic ticket written in Fairview is a court case in the Multnomah County Circuit Court; a city with a municipal and justice court tries its own, and the conviction it ends in goes on the driving record kept by the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services. This guide says which court takes the ticket, who writes them and where the driving record lives.
This guide covers where tickets go, who writes them, the driving record and common questions.

Where a Ticket Written in Fairview Goes
A ticket written by a deputy or a state trooper in Fairview goes to the Multnomah County Circuit Court; one written by city police goes to that city's municipal and justice court where it has one. Either way the ticket is a court case, and the court's index is the record of it.

Who Writes the Tickets in Fairview
The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office and the agencies that report for Portland and Gresham write the traffic tickets in and around Fairview.
The FBI's agency list also places one state police unit, two other agencies, one state agency and one campus police department in Multnomah County (the arrest records guide names each one); the Multnomah County State Police writes the tickets on the state highways.
The Lake Oswego Police Department is listed by the FBI across three counties including Multnomah County, so its arrests are not broken out for Multnomah County here.
The Driving Record and the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services
The driving record is a separate document from the court file. It is kept by the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services, which adds each conviction the court reports and handles suspensions; the court does not issue driving records.
Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.
A DUII is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the DMV (see Fairview DUI).
