Question: What is the curfew in Tucson, Arizona?
Answer: In Tucson, Arizona curfew is 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. for youth under the age of 16. For those between 16 and 17 years of age the curfew is midnight to 5 a.m. In South Tucson, youths under 18 must be off the streets from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Further, youths younger than 16 cannot 'remain, loiter or cruise in any vehicle' in the county or its unincorporated areas between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. The same law applies to 16- and 17-year-olds, between midnight and 5 a.m.

I am so againt the curfew laws it is not even funny!! They say that curfew is to the benefit of teens but all it is in my opion is something else to get us in trouble for. If teens decide to break the law their going to break the law regarless of the time. Although the curfew laws dont applty to me anymore, they once did harass me. If my mother tells me that I can stay out untill 2am then why shouldnt I be able to?????

the curfew is a joke. i see why they would put a curfew through the age of 13, but after that, i think we are reasponsible for our own actions. i dont think that the government should have control of what times i can go out side. its like a prison, they are taking away our freedom a little at a time and it needs to be stopped. this is not all the governments world, they dont have complete control of us.

i think curfew is messed up its not right at all curfew for teenages shourl be untill 13 and when u reach 16 you should be able to stay out as long as you woant because no teenagers at the age of 13-15 folow the curfew anyway and most officers dont even notice it that much on a friday night anwayz unless you are doign something dangeroous wich most of the time your not.

i just wanted to say that the curfew is wrong and you should stand up for it esp if you are 15 or younger because i dont think its fair to be locked up in a house after 10 o clock thanks :)
