@Arabianstar: Can you try heading to Settings > Advanced Features > Bixby Routines to see if you have any routines set up that might activate these settings? If not, restart your S21 in Safe Mode and monitor the performance, depending on the frequency of the issue. This will disable all third party apps and help to determine if the problem is stemming from an external source.
Safe Mode: Press and hold the Power button until the 'Power off' prompt appears on the screen then release > Touch and hold Power off until the 'Safe mode' prompt appears then release > To confirm, tap Safe mode > With Safe Mode enabled, ensure Airplane Mode is turned off
If you find that it no longer enabled Do Not Disturb and Driving Mode automatically, then restart your phone as you would normally and delete any recently installed apps.

@Arabianstar: It may be the case that your phone is connecting automatically with your car when its in Bluetooth range, which is enabling Driving Mode and, with it, Do Not Disturb. If you disable Bluetooth, does the issue persist?

Hi, i have the same problem, i do not own any car, bluetooth devices like buds, TV's or anything like that. Exactly how Arabianstar described it, it turns on randomly, and it acutally did this exactly now! just a minute ago. This has been going on since i got my 21 Ultra, but recently has been much more common and not only when i was on a vehicle but when i was running too! ( possibly the accelerometer is decetcting more than 10km/h or something? ). I have searched everywhere and it's driving me crazy over these last days...
