Im 17 and have moved out of the house, i am wanting to go visit my family in indiana wich i will be traveling by bus to get there. I need to know if its legal to travel there by myself. I am not emancipated but i can legally move out of the house at 17, i just cant own my own car, house/apartment or anything else i have to sign a contract with....so why wouldnt i be able to travel to see my family across state lines? I need as much info as possible and dont answer if you dont know form experience (been there done that or work in this sort of field) as i need the most accurate info so i dont get in trouble =)

You are legally old enough to travel alone. You should have a picture ID with you. Good luck.

Actually in the State of Missouri you can be and are legally considered an adult.Granted you cant do anything such as sign contracts or purchase cigarettes and such.But yes you can travel across State Lines.

You can legally travel across State lines alone, UNLESS you are doing so against your parents wishes, in which case they can have you picked up as a runaway.
