A Sattahip man who found a snake in his car is taking the
incident as a slithering sign of good luck.
Songsit Neanhom, 45, and his family had just gotten in his black Toyota
Vios outside his Soi Bonkai home Aug. 30 when he spotted the meter-long
Oriental whipsnake hanging out from under the chassis.
The reptile had no intention of leaving, however. Animal-rescue officers
spent 30 minutes trying to coax it out, with no luck. Finally Songsit
started the engine and, when it got hot, the snake departed for cooler
pastures and was caught.
The musician said he viewed the fact that the snake chose his car as a
lucky sign and planned to buy lottery tickets with his license plate
number.
