The driver narrowly avoided hitting a passing cyclist and other vehicles.
The SUV hit the wooden pole with such force it was smashed out of the concrete.
It was thrown on top of a huge brick wall before tumbling to the pavement.
The pole was left dangling over the footpath and partly in the road.
Other drivers slowed down following the nasty crash in Windmill Lane, Southall, west London.
Two men in the SUV were seen getting out.
It happened at 7:25am yesterday (3 Jul), as reported by Need To Know.
Local Bev Callaghan said: “Thank goodness for the careful driving of the other drivers.
“This could have been worse.”
Aman Sanghera added: “Oh my God, that’s so scary.”
One – named Rebecca – joked: “Hope the pole was okay.”
The Sultan of Brunei reportedly owned a property on the road.
Sabrina Khan said: “Sultan of Brunei is not going to be a very happy man.”
The London Ambulance Service were called and did attend.
But the paramedics stood down and didn’t take anyone to hospital.
The Met Police has been approached for comment.
