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 16 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““It is a presumption of law, juris et de jure, that a person saw a thing that he should have seen had he looked, and his failure to see what was there to be seen constitutes negligence. Jackson v. Cook, 189 La. 860 , 181 So. 195 ; Scheib v. Ledet, La.App., 57 So.2d 814 ; Flowers v. Indemnity Ins. Co., La.App., 46 So.2d 776 ; Hirsch v. Kendrick, La.App., 43 So.2d 692 ; Maher v. New Orleans Linen Supply Co., La.App., 41 So.2d 101 .” [ 192 So.2d 226, 228 ] “ * * * it is well established that a motorist who attempts to make a left turn on a public highway must ascertain before making the turn that it can be negotiated in safety, and when an accident occurs, as a left turn is being made, the burden rests heavily upon the driver who was making the left turn to explain how the accident occurred, and to show that he was free from negligence. See Huntsberry v. Millers Mutual Fire Insurance Co., 205 So.2d 617 (La.App.3d Cir., 1967) and citations therein. We noted further that in general there were two major obligations or duties of a person making a left turn on a Louisiana highway, the first being that of giving a proper signal, and the second being that of maintaining a proper lookout and in so doing not making a turn endangering a motorist oncoming or following. See L.S.A.-R.S. 32:104(B).” [Parish v. Minvielle, La.App., 217 So. 2d 684, 687 , 3d Cir. 1969],”
