knew/wa/would

Hello,

If I knew that road was one way, I would have gone the other way.
If I knew that road is one way, I would have gone the other way.

I just said this IMMEDIATELY after getting caught by police.

Is it WAS or IS?
I ask because the road is STILL a one-way road when I go caught...

Thanks.

True, but the relevant point is your past lack of knowledge of this,so it needs to be 'If I had known'...'
