My impression is that for motorway_link, 2-way traffic is unusual.   So
I wonder about a maproulette challenge that tries to identify
motorway_links that
  - lack a one_way tag
  - appear to be 2-way from geometry (the hard part)


I would also think that motorway_links that are 2-way would connect to
1-way segments for the actual on/offramp; that could help in identifying
them.  If they are right angle with a stop sign, that seems like a clue
for trunk vs motorway.
