On a related situation, don't assume that because you are crossing a one way street that all traffic will be coming from the right direction. My dad got t-boned from the wrong way because he only looked where the traffic was supposed to be coming from.
Last summer I sat at a stop light on a one way street and watched a pickup with about a 25 foot camper come from the wrong way, then she freaked out seeing 3 lanes coming toward her and tried to turn off where there there wasn't room to get her rig around the corner. It took her almost 5 minutes before the cars on the road where she turned gave her enough room to swing wide enough, and she still ran the TT up over the curb and almost sideswiped a power pole.
I followed her a block west to the one way going the way she wanted. She turned into the center lane, drove a block, then tried to turn left from the center lane and took out the vehicle that was on her left. When I drove past that mess, all I could think was that she was having a really bad day.
