The link you shared disagrees with you - it says that in Arizona vehicles always have the right-of-way outside of crosswalks:

"Pedestrians must yield the right-of-way to vehicles when crossing outside of a marked crosswalk or an unmarked crosswalk at an intersection. Where traffic control devices are in operation, pedestrians may only cross between two adjacent intersections in a marked crosswalk."

Looks like I read that first sentence wrong...

"Vehicles must yield the right-of-way to pedestrians within a crosswalk that are in the same half of the roadway as the vehicle or when a pedestrian is approaching closely enough from the opposite side of the roadway to constitute a danger"

Growing up in AZ I was always told that pedestrians ALWAYS have the right away - something I always thought was strange.

I do stand correct however.
