Yes, that is my guess and I agree it is natural.

Yes, I would discuss it with her and arrive at a compromise to give her some control over the final outcome. I would explain your concerns (e.g. drunk drivers) and hope that she can see your point of view.
I never had a curfew, but I was raised to be aware of the dangers in the world. When I was at college, I would often stay out late, but I took actions that kept me safe. I think the key is open communication and to have an understanding of her new life situation from her point of view.
