§ 5358 Public Highway Definition

• •A public highway is any road, street, or highway that anyone can use.
• •This includes small streets in your neighborhood, big roads in the city, and highways between towns.
• •If it's open for everyone to drive on, it's a public highway.

You're driving your car on the main road near your house to go to the grocery store.

That main road is a public highway because it's open for everyone to use, not just you or your neighbors.
