There is a plan of MIA here. The aircraft rolled to the end of R30 and was aiming to make the 150 degree right turn towards taxiway M. Those familiar with MIA will know that area is a bit of a pigs ear and lacks adequate lighting. In the darkness the crew went taxied too far and crunched a few lights on the displaced threshold of R12 during the turn so decided to hold position whilst they got an inspection. The area of the incident can be found here although Google Earth gives a better image. Bit of a non-event.
