Thats the only way you can work it out and you're the only one that will know.

If you're bad at simple math then you have no idea how to calculate this.

Can I use the Thai driving license app digitally, and will it be accepted by the traffic police?

Phil ********

Because sometimes when you get stopped for a traffic reason they take your licence, tell you to take the fine to the Police station, pay the fine and bring the receipt to the cop that has your licence and he "should" return your licence to you after he sees the receipt.

Don't worry about it. By the time you're at immigration it'll be less than 24hrs overstay.

At the worst it's ฿500 overstay fine.

Probably they wont do or say anything.
