You'd be surprised how well this actually works, just going with it until the momentum is exhausted, as opposed to trying to stop it directly.
I've managed to avoid some serious injury tucking and rolling in the past

Make no mistake, it still hurts, especially as I get older

Just gotta make a quick judgement call as you're falling as to whether rolling on further would be more dangerous or not (Rolling into Traffic, electric fence, etc)
