It's hard to tell you what to do with so sparse information about what you try to accomplish in the end. Of course if you want to have more or less realistic imaging for whatever purpose, 3D is the way to go. If you are after traffic-simulations, it's unneeded complexity. Regarding the "moving cars": you can also go from simply defining paths cars can take and parametrize these to full-blown physics - depending on what you want.
