To-day I was in a 6-carriage DART from Connolly to Sydney Parade (4 Japanese + 2 LHB vehicles). It was driven quite energetically and came to a fairly quick stop just before entering Pearse Station. The same thing happened before Grand Canal Dock and before Sydney Parade. There are no signals at the places where the leading carriage stopped. What was up? Eccentric driver? Train protection system reacting to "energetic" driving? Iv'e heard of overshooting a stop, but this was repeated undershooting by about 200 metres.
