Well, technically all the "onewayroads" switch does is prevent road 
vehicles from entering certain tiles from certain directions.  As far as 
I can tell it does nothing else, so the above must be the same whether 
it's on one-way roads or regular roads.

Or are you creating every single road tile as a one-way road?  That 
might perhaps confuse the RVs, I'm not sure.
