Answering questions! What are the penalties for not paying the fine?

There is a chance of being summoned.
In the case that we do not pay the fine and let time pass, the police officer will issue a warning letter once to remind us to hurry up and pay the fine retroactively. And if we receive the letter but still do not pay, it will enter the process of reporting the case and issuing a summons, which may ultimately lead to an arrest warrant.

Not receiving the tax plate.
In addition to the chance of being summoned, if we try to avoid paying the fine continuously, when it is time to renew the annual tax, the officer will not issue the tax plate. But we will get a temporary plate instead. This temporary plate is valid for only 30 days. If used for more than that, it will be considered driving without a tax plate, which is a violation of the Motor Vehicle Act, Section 11, which is punishable by a fine of up to 2,000 baht and 1 point will be deducted from the driving behavior score.

There is a chance of having our driving license suspended.
In some cases where we have committed a serious traffic violation, in addition to receiving a ticket, the police officer also has the right to seize our driving license. When the driver's license is seized, our name will be on the blacklist of the Department of Land Transport, making us unable to apply for a new driver's license. Of course, there is only one way to help us get our driver's license back, which is to pay the fine in full.
