In NYC, when I was on Jury Duty, they checked my invitation slip at the security checkpoint. Due to security paranoia nowadays, I doubt you would be able to do it.

Jury Duty = judges and lawyers and important people, so restricted access

DMV = only peons work there, so you can walk right in

Yeah, I can imagine in NYC things are different. I live in a town of about 50,000 though the courthouse is still a pretty good size with a couple hundred for jury duty.
