This driver ran into a security gate pole that is on our property while driving backwards. Recorded with a Sunba HZ507-20XB Mini Dome camera.

I run a towing company... these are the kind of drivers that keep me employed!

Here is a snapshot of the car just before hitting the pole. This is from a Hikvision DS-2CD2032I camera with a 12mm lens. The car does appear to have damage on the drivers side of car.

Damage to rear drivers side quarter panel also. I wonder if they have hated other poles in the past? Or maybe they hate the car. :p

That damage on the front fender is due to hyper-extending the drivers door... I've seen this a thousand times.
Likely they had similar "backing up" problems while the door was open once also.
Ugh.

people who can't turn their heads to look where they are going have no business driving...

almost to the bottom
after the first couple of dents and almost tearing the door off... I would try driving forward and maybe stay out of reverse.
