Default DLR driver falling asleep

This morning I took the DLR - it appeared to be the only line that hadn't
completely gone tits-up - and sat at the front on the right. The "driver"
(or whatever you call him, as he doesn't have to drive it) was so tired he
fell asleep between every single stop.


I got thrown off the DLR the other day by one who was very much awake. Coming
back from City Airport forgot to swipe the Oyster (my excuse: first time I've
ever used Oyster on DLR without a barrier - you get conditioned to expect a
gate - and I was dog tired after a long trip).
