Or has KLM different SOP's than most airlines about what to do after landing.
(Like: park it on the runway.)

Perhaps, in view of this and the recent MyTravel incident, along with the programme to decrease the number of runway incursions the CAA should run a parallel programme to decrease the number of runway excursions.
