There were strikes on the DLR in 2015 and 2018, shutting down the service. There is always a member of staff on every DLR train-they call them Passenger Service Agents. The first driverless trains for the underground have been ordered and are being built to replace the cars on the Piccadilly Line. They will at first have drivers but can eventually become fully automated. Other things-expensive things-will have to be done to the underground before that happens. I can recommend reading this article if anyone is *really* interested in "driverless trains": https://www.londonreconnections.com/2021/the-political-myth-of-the-driverless-tube-train/
