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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“But there is absolutely no testimony that 25 mile official speed limit signs were erected on the right-hand side of the highway facing the traffic to be controlled,____ The erection and display of the signs as prescribed are primary requisites. The speed limitation only applies to the limited zone so marked. In absence of proof that a zone was so marked, it cannot be established that appellant violated this section (1002(b) 4) of the act.”
