A good read.
OVERRUN Beyond the Shutdown - Oops or Oh S**t!!![FONT='Arial','sans-serif'] If you cannot SAFELY make the right turn to the return road, do not worry. You still have serviceable overrun. KEEP IT STRAIGHT!!! Spinning to scrub speed is never a good idea. The surface of the overrun beyond the end is SOLID (old pavement) but the surface ROUGH. Sideways off the end is also not a good idea. This “paved but rough” overrun is about another ¼ mile; then you will see cones in a Vee pattern intended to “funnel” you to a dirt road through the trees for about another ¼ mile. If you have not stopped by then, you will be at the highway. You now have a choice: find something to hit or keep going until you get to town. When you do finally stop,TURN OFF YOUR MASTER SWITCH!!!
