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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

The vehicle was also drifting in its lane. Under those circumstances we found that the trial court was authorized to conclude that a brief investigative stop was permissible.”
