The types of crashes you described don't just happen at one way streets.
They can happen at any intersection if the driver is turning right.

I don't know about data, but I was hit by a car at Division and
Eastwood/Atwood a few years back. The car was heading toward
Eastwood/Atwood from the Jenifer Street Market direction, came to a stop
at the intersection, then started to turn right. I was on the bike path,
heading west. The car started to move just as I entered the
intersection. She hadn't looked to her right to check for traffic
because the motor vehicle street is one-way there. 

Something I would like to see addressed in the street design.

Thanks a lot for the information Steve.  Since there are ongoing
neighborhood meetings discussing options for the Winnebago St.
reconstruction, I would love to see any crash data within 3 blocks of
Winnebago/Eastwood from Rodgers to Division.  Is there any chance you
could post the most recent data for that area? 
I have created a map of the crash data you provided located at:

Based on the map, it is pretty clear that Willy Street is a big crash
generator.
