we have a divided 4 lane here with a side road. its not uncommon to see someone driving (north) in the (southbound) lane..lots of tourists here.
its easy to do. if you are on the side road and want to turn onto the main road its easy to just turn left into oncoming traffic. one actually passed me going the wrong direction. thank goodness I was in the right lane.

we have some traffic circles.
I have seen several people stop when entering and turn left going the wrong way to make a left instead of going all the around.

when I was younger I was two cars behind one that hit head on with another car that was going the wrong way on I95. it killed one that I know of.
I pulled the baby out (still in car seat) . it had a broken leg.

I use to race bicycles a long time ago. kind of glad I stopped as I say I would probably be dead. one thing I learned was to make eye contact with someone either pulling out from the side or turning left towards you. also always be prepared for them to do the worst thing you would want them to do.
