(1980) Uninsured motorist statute has no application in cases where tort-feasor did have automobile liability policy which complied with requirements of Motor Vehicle Safety Responsibility Law.  Harrison v. MFA Mutual Insurance Co. (Mo.), 607 S.W.2d 137.

(1987) This chapter prior to the effective date of section 303.025 has no effect on increasing liability limits of automobile insurance policy according to provision in policy that coverage would be increased beyond limits set in policy where such limits were less than the minimum required to meet a state's financial responsibility laws since this chapter before the enactment of section 303.025 was not compulsory but allowed motorists to avoid financial responsibility until after one accident. Protective Cas. Ins. Co. v. Cook, 734 S.W.2d 898 (Mo.App.E.D.).
