break a law like that but respect a lesser law such as a curfew law? This is already not making much sense right? Well it gets even more confusing. Most curfews laws are set between the hours of midnight and 5am. You would think that these hours have been selected for a logical reason but they have not. Most juvenile crime is committed between the hours of 2pm and 8pm. There are no curfew laws to cover this period of time (Teen Curfews Should Not Be Supported). Common sense would tell you that
