Much like a stroad is a street and a road combined into an unholy abomination, a strighway is a street and a highway combined into something even worse.
In other words, it has businesses on either side like a street, but heavy high speed traffic like a highway. It’s not effective as a street because of the intense car traffic and poor walkability, nor is it effective as a highway because of the density of exits and people getting off.
Features of a strighway include giant strip malls on either side featuring supermarkets and chain restaurants, 5-lane main roads with 2-lane frontage/access roads on either side, billboards for injury lawyers, and interchanges with other strighways that are impossible to navigate.

Examples of strighways include the Katy Expressway near Houston, I-35 through San Antonio/Austin, and George Bush Turnpike in DFW. There are also strighways outside of Texas, like the Jersey Turnpike, but they’re most prominent in Texas.

My congressman thinks unions and minimum wage hikes are extremist, but he wholeheartedly supports private strikebreaker forces. He thinks renewable energy and EVs are a socialist pipe dream, but he voted yes to an additional $85B in oil subsidies. He called universal healthcare is overpriced, but voted to continue the war in Berserkistan.
Literally nobody in our district supports him because he’s a centroll.

Jack and Chad both got dumped around the same time. Jack spent the whole year moping about and whining about it, and is still single to this day.
Chad took a different approach: he went on his Paul Arc. He got on a workout routine, started reading his Bible every day, started a business selling nutritional supplements, and got married about five years later.
