An online clip of that spat, which involved another driver, was posted on YouTube on Oct 8. It is not known when the incident happened.
The cyclist, who wanted to be known only as Mr Keneth, was not aware that the video had gone viral until recently. That two-minute video from an in-car camera, which had no audio, showed Mr Keneth weaving through traffic towards Harbourfront Walk.
At the end of the video, he was seen dismounting from his bicycle and gesturing angrily at the driver.
"We were both approaching the red light," said Mr Keneth. "The car was so close to my bike and he kept honking at me.
"There was no other vehicle behind him. He had no reason to honk at me."
He added that he approached the driver to ask why he had honked, but the driver's wife simply told him that they had a camera.
Mr Keneth declined to comment on the incident involving the housewife at Telok Blangah, insisting that it should be handled by the police.
But, he added: "She tried to run me over."
Mr Keneth, who is believed to be Australian, has been in Singapore for 14 years.
He chooses to cycle regularly although he owns a car.
He claimed to be a safe road user who has been cycling since he was three.
