They aren't. Unless you have the room to plant several acres of them between you and the road in question.
Here's a tree wall bordering my yard that absorbs sound. Got some rain and wind so they are little mussed, but they clean up well. The wall next to them is six foot for reference. These are Italian or Mediterranean cypress.
