The footage shows a man crossing the road toward another individual while wielding a baseball bat, which he attempts to use as a weapon.
Before the man with the bat could strike, he was charged at, knocked down, and forced to scramble backwards while being chased.
The thug who charged at him also appeared to be holding a knife, though it's not clearly visible in the footage.
He seemingly tried to use the weapon on the other man before quickly turning and fleeing back to his bike.
The video then cuts to a shocking scene where the man with the stick drives his car and runs over the cyclist trying to escape, in front of horrified onlookers.
It's unclear if the cyclist was injured or if either man was arrested.
The Metropolitan Police have been contacted for comment.
It comes after footage shows the moment machete-wielding thugs fought in a vicious street brawl outside a nightclub.
Four people were arrested and two were injured following the incident at Tabu nightclub on Dover Street in Mayfair, London.
Cops arrested one man at the scene in the early hours of Sunday morning and then detained another three men in Hertfordshire later in the night.

Footage shows a man in a green jacket appearing to brandish an illegal machete as he squared up to what looks like a security guard.
Another two yobs were seen hurling metal poles and traffic cones as shocked bystanders watched on.
The clip ends after others step in to stop the fight with voices also heard screaming off camera.
The thugs were then seen walking back to their car as the chaotic brawl died down.
Met Police officers said the incident is "isolated" but are still appealing for witnesses and anyone with footage of the attack.
A Met Police spokesperson said: "Police were called at 3.11am on Sunday, 30 March to a venue on Dover Street, W1 following reports of a disturbance and three people in possession of weapons.
"Officers attended and one man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon.
"Following initial enquiries, three men were arrested in Hertfordshire in the early hours of this morning in connection with this investigation. All four men remain in custody.
"At this time, it's believed that this was an isolated incident.
"Two people sustained injuries which are not life changing."
