    Looks like they backed into it from the paint rubbed off on the bumper. Probably going too fast in reverse and rode up on the pole, getting on top of it. Once on top the weight of the car forced the pole through the floor of the car.

      More likely - backed over it, pushed it over, pulling it out of the ground a bit, until they got far enough over it that the top was behind the bumper, then finally noticed something was wrong and tried to pull forward again, which started pulling the post upright again… All the more impressive because they would have been doing it slowly, and giving the car gas to overcome the extra resistance…
