Which is "oneway" but for some reason it wasnt't marked as such. If
there's a true oneway street with proper signage, it's actually obvious
from both ends (just consider the signs specific to oneway case) so you
"cannot miss it and u-turn". This non-oneway case is no different from
=destination or a turn restriction in which only a particular route is
forbidden, not the actual traffic on the road.
Are there some real world examples where a maxspeed for opposing direction
is really different? (Signage bugs don't count or short sections that
occur due to sign placement).
