I agree on the motorway, but around here it is very common to have motorway_links that are partially oneway, but then merge in an oneway=no before joining other roads e.g. |\ | L R M \ | W =--L2---+ | / | | L R |/ where MW is the motorway (one direction only), L are two oneway motorway links (entry and exit respectively), R is some kind of non-motorway road and L2 is a two-way part of motorway_link of course in most of these cases you need either a oneway=yes tag on the L parts or a oneway=no tag on the L2 part, so having either default is going to require some explicit tagging.
