Plenty of NG over-runs in the US/West, Burbank, Jacksonville, a very close near miss in Christchurch recently come to mind, AA in Kingston back in 2009.
Anyone continuing an approach in such report conditions as this accident, unless so low on fuel that they are unable to go-around will struggle to get a defence from me.

If you really want to compare, EASA did a study and concluded the rates of runway excursion in the EU was very similar and representative of the rest of the world (p14). Runway Excursions study: European perspective


3.2 COMPARISON BETWEEN EUROPE AND THE REST OF THE WORLD An important part of the present study is to compare runway excursions that occurred in Europe to the rest of the world. In Table 1 an overview is given of the frequency of occurrence of the different types of runway excursions for the different flight phases for both Europe and the rest of the world. This table shows that there are only small (statistically not significant) differences in the frequencies in Europe compared to the rest of the world. For both Europe and the rest of the world runway excursions occurred most often during the landing phase with a more or less equal division between landing overruns and veeroffs.
