Despite many other answers that tell you "No", you are still able to pass a vehicle safety inspection in Missouri.
I have a car which is passed each year with a crack running from top to bottom of the windshield. It only passes because it is not in my field of view. A few places may fail it because they don't know, but the law says it passes.
Straight from the Missouri CSR:
(4) Inspect glazing for proper markings, for
material or conditions that obscure driver's
vision such as stickers or tinting, and cracks,
distortion or other damage. Also inspect
operation of window at driver's left.
(G) Glazing (Glass).
1. If equipped with a windshield, it must
provide a clear vision of the road ahead.
2. Reject vehicle:
A. If the windshield is cracked,
scarred or defaced to the extent that it does
not provide a clear vision.
