If the civil judgment against you that is 16 years old and it has not been renewed, then there is a chance that you can file a motion with the court deeming that the judgment has lapsed. If such is the court's determination then the judgment will be deemed satisfied and you can then get your driver's license. I suggest that you search for a collections attorney on attorneypages.com to assist you in the matter.
