Fatal crashes have become a tragic trend along a stretch of I-16 that some are calling the "Devil's Highway."

In a little more than a year, two accidents each killed five people on I-16 near the interchange with I-95; another wreck about 20 miles away killed five nursing students.

But while the Georgia Department of Transportation is investing half a billion dollars in current and future projects around the Savannah area, some say the solution is still out there.
