- Mayors claimed the curfews were needed to curb youth violence and protect minors from gang influence.
- In Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine the curfew runs from 11.30 pm to 6 am since July 17th, and in Triel-sur-Seine Cédric Aoun said it will `ask where their children are really going`.
- Critics pointed out that Limoges mayor Emile Roger Lombertie said `the results of the curfew so far are not good`, while other officials report improved outcomes.
- The Conseil d'Etat can annul local curfews, and measures may be challenged if they conflict with constitutional rights and freedoms.
