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. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 12 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“While an argument can be made that the coverage is in some sense personal because it follows the insured to a non-owned vehicle, liability coverage is nevertheless vehicle dependent. The liability coverage is not like a first-party or ** personal-accident policy such as uninsured motorist or medical pay coverages. ... Liability coverage results solely because a vehicle is involved.”
