Re: Minors traveling across state lines
No, it is not illegal in these United States for a 17 year old minor to travel across state lines in a vehicle unchaperoned by an adult in the vehicle, and, furthermore, such travel would in no way subject the parents of such a minor to any formal charges from the authorities, whether civil or criminal.
