A city officer is still an commissioned officer for that state. All state law have determined that a police can lawfully stop, detainee and arrest you anywhere within the state. Jurisdiction doesn't matter if the crime is serious enough. So it does not matter if your on a highway or not.

Yes, and I have on many occasions when there is a blatant violation. Usually I leave it to the State folks that get paid to chase taillights.

if a cop is in his district he can pull you over wherever. if he can prove that he followed you from the city or that you ran from him he can cross over into another jurisdiction. but if he was just driving in the county and saw you he can not pull you over.
