What is a curfew?

Answer 1

A curfew is a time limit to being outdoors, sometimes imposed on youths under age 18. The curfew is mostly for people's well being and safety.

A short-term curfew can also be imposed during times of war or civil unrest (e.g. after a riot) as a way of minimizing property damage and loss of life.

Answer 2

A curfew is a set time by which individuals are required to be off the streets and at home. It is typically imposed by a government or authority as a measure to maintain public order and safety, particularly during emergencies or times of civil unrest. Violating a curfew can result in legal consequences, such as fines or even arrest. Curfews can vary in duration and are often temporary measures.

Answer 3

It depends on your state laws. In Texas each county creates a curfew for uninhabited areas, and each municipality creates a curfew for there jurisdiction. You would have to call your local police department to get the exact times. Some do not have curfews.

In England there are only curfews for times of unrest, the last one was in the 1970s. There have been few occasions since, and Hampshire has never had one. In Collingdale, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, the curfew is 10:30PM 7 days a week, 365 or 366 days a year.
