PAUL McCartney gets a hard day’s fright — as he’s nearly run over on Abbey Road.

The former Beatle, 80, almost needed help after an Uber driver whizzed past as he posed on the famous zebra crossing.

Sir Paul was on a magical mystery tour with his daughter as she filmed him recreating the Fab Four’s 1969 album cover, below, for her documentary about the North London recording studio.

Mary, 53, told S Magazine: “The bit where the car nearly ran him over was so funny.”

One fan commented: “How did the driver not see him, it’s not as though the road is long and winding or anything?”

Another said: “Holy Moly! Obviously didn’t recognise him with his shoes on.”

Not to be outdone, another chipped in with: “Doesn’t that just sum up modern Britain, with a typical Toyota Pious driver!”

Fans still regularly visit the famous crossing in St John’s Wood to recreate the Fab Four’s iconic album cover.
