I guess it really depends on what you mean by "designed to handle the traffic." I agree that it wouldn't result in traffic congestion with cars backed up up along the entire street, but that is a pretty low bar to set. My point is that it is never desirable to direct traffic onto residential streets. It is always better to redirect it to roads.
Since a picture is worth a thousand words, which street to you think is better to direct traffic onto?
Wilmont Ave.
Churchill Ave. N.
