An 82-year-old woman was clinging to life Friday after she fell in a Queens roadway and was run over, police said.

The senior was crossing Northern Blvd. near 90th St. in Jackson Heights about 2 p.m. when she fell to the ground.

A moment later, a car turned from 90th St. onto Northern Blvd, running her over.
