If someone is going the wrong way down a one-way, you really want to know about them.
It happens more often than you think.
It's true, I don't think very often.
I stand in the street and yell at them until they back up and turn around on the street i live on
I personally see it on my street once or twice a month, seems unlikely I'd happen to see it every time it happens
And the person doing that is a bad driver and/or has attention problems
Pedestrians?
Moving from a walker hostile city to a walk friendly city, I forgot they existed and had some close calls. I'm pretty aware of them now.
Cyclists are the worst
I used to live next to a one way street that was two ways all around it. One of the only one way streets in that small town, next to where all the bars were, in a college town, and there was just enough of a hill to make it so two cars at opposite ends of it could not see each other. It was only a block long but the number of crashes and death defying attempts at crossing it on foot was astounding
Did that once, cost me 30 bucks. Didn't see the sign, whoops. I did notice once it was too late tho.
I remember a vid of a cyclist going the wrong way down a 1 way street. Pedestrian didn't look that way and bam. Guess who the cyclist blamed.
Where I'm from most one way streets are only one way for cars and such, bicycles are often explicitly allowed in both directions
Not to say that it was the case in the video
