They take into account the seriousness of the crime, including length of conviction, and when the crime was committed. Driving offenses like speeding aren't grounds for not receiving accreditation.

The biggest obstacle will be gaining a visa to enter the host country. Many countries do not allow convicted felons to enter (Canada is one of them). Potential Olympic participants are rigorously background-checked, so it seems very unlikely that a felon would be allowed to compete in the Olympics.

From what I have read yes you can as long as your country allows it. I have not read the official olympic rule book though.
