I'm 17 and I am traveling from Laredo (Texas, US) to San Antonio (Texas). I don't have an ID, but I do have my birth certificate. Can I use that to travel by bus in Texas?

1You may consider to look up the information to both questions on the website of the bus service provider. Rules do vary from provider to provider. – DCTLib Aug 22 '14 at 8:50

I updated your question, to contain only one. However, for it to be re-opened, more information is needed, such as the bus service provider. – Bernhard Aug 22 '14 at 9:47

2Which bus line? I don't know that I've ever even been asked to show ID when taking a bus, except maybe when I ordered a ticket online, and had to show my ID to pick it up at will call (although I know even that isn't consistent). – Flimzy Aug 22 '14 at 9:48
According to this page, if you are using Greyhound and you are buying a ticket online, you will need photo identification. Therefore, I believe that your birth certificate will not be enough. Here is the relevant excerpt (emphasis is mine):
Each passenger must present a ticket and a valid photo ID to board the bus.
