Are the regular songthaews running in Samui?

I mean the shared ones that do a fixed route (not the rip-off charter ones) and how much is it to go from Chaweng to Lamai?

After 6 pm you only have the choice of "rip-off charter ones", or "rio-off" taxis, or for example using Grab taxi-app, which might be cheaper and even the same car, as the "rip-off" taxi.

"Rip-off"-price is about 500-600 baht, normal daytime (6 am to 6 pm) songthaew price I'm not sure of, but probably less than 100, most likely 60-80 baht per person; there shall be a price list in the car, but always check and agree price first...????

I doubt the locals pay that much and the minute you start trying to agree a fare is when it turns into a rip-off charter. I think I'll rent an electric bike instead.
