In an action seeking uninsured motorist benefits for plaintiff’s children who were injured while joyriding in a truck belonging to a construction company owned by the fifteen-year-old driver’s father (the teen had no permission to drive the vehicle), dismissal of the complaint is affirmed where the truck was not an uninsured vehicle for purposes of the policy under either Kansas law or the policy’s relevant language.
