So before Jonny and Ash grass me up I may slightly of reversed into another bollard yesterday on the way back from Ace . Never going to live my attraction for backing up onto large bollards down am I .
In my defense this is the lesson why you shouldn't drive tired. Id had 2 hours sleep between my night shift and getting up for ace and also I was still tired from a 16 hour shift a few days before hand. Anyway I was reversing into a parking space in an empty set of bays, it was down hill and there was bushes down the side and behind and there was also a kerb behind which is almost exactly the same set up as my car park at home and so i just kept rolling intending to stop when i either hit the kerb or the bush.
I think Jonny and Ash have better pictures.

Thing is, I reversed a trailer with a skyline on it into the bay next to this, equally tired. And I didn't hit a post..

It was mainly thinking that I was in my own car park and that there was a nice soft hedge behind me that was the problem, not entirely tiredness's fault.

After reading your first post if you're that tired I guess you shouldn't be reversing...just drive it in
