Avoid the busy roads and do a mixture of aggressive and defensive cycling. Take the lane if it's not safe for others to pass, and take side streets instead of busy roads. Your goal is to be seen and avoid the angry drivers.

I bike commuted every day for years and had no problems. I just changed jobs and it's too far away now, but I really miss cycling to work.
