This means there is some kind of disconnect between the data in the 
database and how you have it defined in the mapfile.

Try:

select st_astext(st_extents(the_geom)) from ruas;

Once you get this you will have the min and max extents of the data in 
the database and you can compare that to the polygon above and see if it 
overlaps.
