Travelling South on 15-501 (as toward Pinehurst area or Myrtle Beach), Smokey is usually sitting off sides of the road. Speed limit quickly reduced from 55 to 45 to 35 in a matter of less than 1 mile. Be doing 35 when you reach the Carthage city limit, and particularly when rounding the turn where S.R. 24 veers to the right. When coming north, Smokey sits in the shopping plaza to the left. Again, rapid speed limit reduction in this direction.
