Well I have 1st hand experience of city driving in Atlanta being I live there (Sort of) and I daily drive my bike.

Atlanta is full of crazy ass drivers. When on I-85 remember that unless you want to get ran over you need to be traveling atleast 85mph (except for mornings and evenings where you average 1mph). But Atlanta also has a booming Motorcycle and yes a huge growing scooter community. Which means people are noticing bikes even more now. The news has even covered it and told it's viewers to pay extra attention.

As for theft. Most bikes that I hear of that are stolen are from apartments at night. You don't hear much about bikes being stolen while you are at the store or at work. When they are stolen they are usually thrown into the back of a truck by 4 dudes and it's gone. Most I do is handlebar ignition lock and throwing it in 1st gear and my bike has been left in some very questionable places. Nothing much but my bike's ugly enough so that no one wants it anyways.
