A "traffic" tag sounds like a good idea, but I'd have two suggestions: 1) Can we find a better name? 2) Estimates are better than words. I can imagine what 5000 cars per day look like, but what is considered heavy traffic in (for example) Brazil?
I'm all for letting highway tag only worry about high-level stuff (footway, cycleway, road, path...) and have a separate class tag for official classification where needed. I've created this page: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Highway_classes Feel free to add your region! PS: +1 to Michael's point about not changing classifications in countries with an official system.
