Although every state has strict car insurance coverage requirements, many
drivers don’t have coverage. Nationwide, about 12.6 percent of all drivers
don’t have car insurance. Missouri ranks 12th in the nation for uninsured
motorists, with about 16.4 percent of drivers lacking necessary coverage.
Based on this data, about 701,000 drivers in Missouri don’t have car
insurance. As a result, there’s a good chance that you could get into an
accident with one of these motorists at some point in time while driving
around St. Louis.
