Los Angeles, CA asked in Criminal Law for Arizona

Q: What is the definition of a Highway in citation # 28-955B

We were pulled over for unlawful muffler cutout or by pass and the citation says it is only a violation of traveling on a highway. The street we were pulled over on was Ajo way and Dodge Blvd defiantly not a highway
