The pilot stated he made a landing with a crosswind from the right. No aileron correction was used. On landing rollout the airplane started to drift to the right, the pilot applied left rudder with negative results. The airplane continued to the right off the right side of the runway. He observed a taxiway sign and applied right rudder, and the airplane collided with the sign. Examination of the brakes, flight controls and nosewheel steering revealed no evidence of a precrash mechanical failure or malfunction. Examination of the right main landing gear revealed a scuff mark. Examination of the runway surface revealed a skid mark veering to the right of the centerline which was consistent with the damage noted on the right main landing gear.
Probable Cause: The pilot's improper use of ailerons and brakes on landing rollout.
