Thanks, Luiz, Jack, Bruce.
Bruce, in Israel it is mandatory to turn on the lights on all out of
town roads between November and May. I have tried to use a slower
shutter speed (SR and handholding permitting) of 1/6th of a second. The
idea was to have the closer cars to be more blurred than those in the
middle going for tilt-shift lens effect, which I reckon worked only
partially if at all.
Jack, this is the widest highway in the center of Israel and as such it
is rarely brought to parking lot condition. It often chances however to
be almost standing still with very slow maddeningly deliberate slowness
of its advance...
Luiz, I am unaware of any such regulations as to whether tripod use is
allowed or not. In fact, my tripod is on loan to a fellow photog who
shoots a lot in the studio conditions. I am left with monopod that does
not see use often enough. I should consider bringing one to work from
time to time as you may be right and with proper support the slower
shutter speeds could have been used getting perhaps better results.

I like that shot very much indeed - would be greatly tempted to do a
long exposure, assuming the place would allow. Boris, are there
specific regulations on tripod use in Tel Aviv? Is it a safe place to
walk with photo gear?

Like the sweeping curve of the roadway and the building locations.
IOW, nice composition! My experience with such traffic is to see
it dead still. Perhaps that would have been another choice.
