Woman Shot in Face on Atlanta Interstate

http://www.ajc.com/news/atlanta/los-...t-1467656.html

A couple of visitors were traveling on an Atlanta Interstate when the wife was shot in the face as she drove the rental car. They maintain the incident was totally random and that they did not know the attackers. They also state that they were not involved in any type of road rage incident that preceded this shooting

So, what preparations do you make to respond to an incident like this?

If possible I avoid letting people pace me on multi-lane roads. I generally keep my handgun holstered while driving, but not sure how quickly could I access it if needed. Maybe I need to investigate alternative ways of securing my gun so it is easily accessible. Also, I suspect in a situation like this “defensive” driving would be of more value than attempting to return fire.
