Traffic is just so bad, live near the bts somewhere and grab for anything beyond that. There are also great services available for further trips like huahin etc.
Though with a surname like yours you may prefer a car 😅
i don't make a habit of eating live creatures but of you think about it, fish eat live shrimp. And i think it would probably be a less painful death than being scooped up in a net and thrown into a crate to slowly suffocate on my way to a fish market to be eaten dead.
