I can confirm that used to be true for judgements that were the result of traffic incidents. (I had an uninsured driver hit me back in the 80’s and sued for damage to my motorcycle.) I had to file my small claims judgement with the DMV.

That actually makes more sense than the information I got from my source. I’ll check into it and post when I get a reliable answer. Although, it sure would make getting claims settled easier if, essentially, you couldn’t drive until you settled the claim.[/quote]
Continuing this side topic…
Next time you’re driving, pay attention to how many cars are driving with expired tags. It’s easy – if the year sticker is yellow, it’s 2010, they’re legal. If it’s blue and the month is earlier than June – they’re expired. If it’s orange, they’ve been driving on expired tags (breaking the law) since last year. I do this to fight boredom when I’m stuck in stop-n-go on the way home. I would estimate 1 in 20 cars have expired tags. People don’t care about the legal requirements to drive. If someone’s not paying their HOA, they’re probably not renewing their registration either.
