The rule book (2000) actually recommends against
coming to a complete stop after the finish line.
SFR supp 10 gives some authority for DSQ due to
unsafely exiting the course without stopping.
I've never seen more than a warning handed out,
and I've never seen anyone do it twice in a row.
I've never understood it to be an automatic DNF.
