In this case, the "opposite cycle lane" is 6 metres wide and separated by a central reservation from the "oneway" part of the road opposite. So tagging it like one of those painted one-metre-wide lanes might get confusing.
But generally the question is should "oneway to cars" be tagged as oneway=yes? Because it paints a big oneway arrow on the map which will confuse everyone except car-drivers.
