Not able to pay DUI fine

In all likelihood a warrant for your arrest will be issued shortly after the due date. However, if you go to the court house (best early in the morning) and ask the clerks office to let you see the judge. Most judges will grant extensions. Especially, if you have a good past payment history. On the other hand, the best way to get in trouble with the court is to do nothing.

Is there any way to legally leave my parents house at age 17 without parental consent?

In many states there is a legal process to become an emancipated minor. You should contact a local attorney to see if you are eligable.

Traveling while on probation

It can't hurt to tell yoir PO but you are not rquired to do so. I would also consider asking the court to consider converting your probation to summary.

Can I get a driver license replacement while my dmv hearing is pending?It had been posponed 2times already.

If your hearing was continued the DMV should have sent you an extension of your temporary license.

As for your regular license, probably not if you originally received a "per se" suspension.

If you are also involved in drug use and you can claim that your sales are to support your habit you might have a chance of going to rehab in lieu of jail. You definately need to consult a local criminal defense attorney to review your situation and the facts of your case. I would not recomend relying on a public defender.
