Long answer: The majority of license-aware OSM users do believe that, as long as you keep the information layers separate, the attribution of both layers separate, and a normal user can tell apart which is which, putting several layers together is not considered a derivative work but a collaborative work, and the CC-by-sa license does not have to be enforced to turn the other layers into CC-bt-sa -covered material. Even if the CC-by-sa license would ever "contaminate" your traffic and routing data, the license does not have the "nc" component, so you'd be able to charge money (though in the worst case, you'd have to release traffic data under CC-by-sa after you're charged for it).
