Strawberry Fields Forever

The Car
Remember in the film Magical Mystery Tour where, during the music sequence for 'I Am The Walrus' a white car is shown driving behind McCartney's head (the only member of the group to have this done to them)? Well, the same thing happens in the Strawberry Fields video. At the beginning of the original version (the Anthology version cuts it out) as the Beatles a walking backwards a car can be seen in the background driving from right to left. The only member's head it goes behind is Paul's and as soon as it does the group vanishes. Firstly, why has the the scene of a white car driving 'through' Paul's head been shown to us twice, and also why in this case did the group immediately disappear as soon as it happened?
 
Nothing Is Real #1
During the second chorus as John sings the line "Nothing is real" this shot of Paul is shown in the video. Now, if this only happened once then it could be put down as coincidence...
 
Nothing Is Real #2
... however, the next time John sings it the same thing happens again! As he again sings "Nothing si real" this shot of Paul is shown. Once is coincidence, twice is fishy...
 
Nothing Is Real #3
... three times is deliberate! The fourth time that John sings "Nothing is real", the last time in the song, we're once again shown a shot of Paul. Why is it that just about every time John sings "nothing is real" we're shown a picture of Paul? Are they trying to show us what isn't real in the group?
