Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

““It is the settled law of this state that a driver of an automobile is ‘bound to anticipate that he may meet persons at any point of the street, and he must, in order to avoid a charge of negligence, keep a proper lookout for them and keep his machine under such control as will enable him to avoid a collision with another person using proper care and caution, and if the situation requires he must slow up and stop’. (Italics ours.) (Reaugh v. Cudahy Packing Co., 189 Cal. 335, 340 [ 208 Pac. 125 , 127]; Rush v. Lagomarsino, 196 Cal. 308, 317 [ 237 Pac. 1066 ].)””
