Is there a specific situation (e.g. a particular node/way) that you're thinking of?

no I just use the API to get the ways from a nodeID and in my code I just handled the possibility to get one way back. (I want to add lanes in my local .osm file so I can use it in a traffic simulation)

Yes. :) I can think of two situations:

Crossing ways (e.g. a junction between two roads).
Overlapping ways, where two ways lie over each other (e.g. a river which also forms the border between two countries).

Or, much simpler, a street is split in two parts, and both share the connection node.
