I don't get it. I've been to that Wal-Mart, I don't have an urge to run into random barricades and poles, or this one, specifically. Does it vanish in their blind spot? Does their blind spot expand? Is the pole magnetic?

Has anyone interviewed these people to find out why they did it?

Someone did interview the pole. https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/news/local/lewiston-auburn/whats-up-with-the-auburn-walmart-pole-traffic/97-fec51927-bb20-4979-9e86-a2e7ad20faf3

I can only assume there is some sort of forcefield at work here that draws vehicles in.

It's covered by a Somebody Else's Problem field.
