    printer friendly version

    Question: What is the curfew and what happens if I'm out past that time?

    Answer: Curfew times are different in every city. You need to check with your city offices to find out what curfew times and dates are.

    In Phoenix, the curfew is

    10 p.m. to 5 a.m. for kids 15 years old and under, 7 days a week

     

    12 a.m. Midnight to 5 a.m. for 16 and 17 year olds every night

     

    If you are out after curfew, this is an incorrigible act and you could be arrested and prosecuted. Sometimes the police call the parents to pick up the kids.

    To find out more about curfews, you can check the curfew topic in the laws section.

    I feel that if you want to be safe then stay inside at night, dont try to lock up other teenagers just becasue you think its safe. Can someone tell me what the difference between a 16 and an 18 year old are? becasue to me there are no differences yeah maybe 2 yers but what is a 16 year old gonna do that a 18 year old wont? And if you think its going to keep troubled kids off the street ha thats wrong if they are going to do stupid stuff let them go to juv-e that will get more of the stupid kids off the street, and less crimes.
