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 21 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“one could hardly infer, from the testimony about the collision in Caraway, a motive, intent, or plan or mode of operation by [the officer] to cause a collision with Morgan. The only similarity between the Caraway incident and Morgan’s collision is that both involved a motorcyclist and [the officer] driving a patrol car.”
