Perhaps I can refer you to what you said of the 2000 road deaths:
And? 2000 is nothing compared to the total, but getting the DLR train op to
sit at the front costs nothing. Its not like do anything useful anyway apart
from open and close the doors which they could easily do from the desk.
In case you haven't noticed, they also check tickets. Presumably you're an
expert on how to dodge the ticket checks, but not everyone has your
expertise in this area.
I think not, 'cos it's not feasable with the current 3-unit trains.
Back when it was a small system with 11 units & not so many passengers
the train captains had ample time to check tickets & dish-out tourist
info, but now it's a busy little network & it can't be done.
Why can't they check tickets and Oyster cards in whichever car they're
in? I'm pretty sure they still do, from time to time, and of course
they can move between the cars at stops.
Oyster usage replacing printed tickets might be another factor, & it's
still possible to deploy the the Revenue Protection teams as & when
needed.
They can check Oyster cards.
