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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[W]here a motorist evades a police roadblock, “that police may stop them and check the validity of their license tag, and inspection sticker.” The supreme court has also found ... that such investigative stops are clearly within the coverage of the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution. On the other hand, “[wjhere a detention ... exceeds the scope of an investigatory stop, it approaches a seizure.” Thus, the United States Supreme Court has devised a standard of inquiry for evaluating the reasonableness of such investigative stops as follows: “whether the officer’s action was justified at its inception, and whether it was reasonably related in scope to the circumstances which justified the interference in the first place.””
