Motorists weren’t laughing Jan. 7 when a meter-long snake decided to sun itself on the road outside Tantrarak School in Soi Phaniad Chang, off Central Road blocking both traffic lanes.
Pattaya animal-control officers were called to remove the relaxing reptile. They said winter months often see the cold-blooded animals find warm places like roads, engine blocks and homes to warm up in.
