The collision led to a section of the A46, near Laceby, being closed for around three-and-a-half hours.
The man, who was the only person in the car at the time of the collision, was rushed for treatment with suspected serious back injuries. His injuries were initially thought to be more serious.
Humberside Fire and Rescue crews were called at 6.47pm. Two appliances from Peaks Lane attended and the rescue support unit from Scunthorpe.
Police road closures were in place for much of the night as rescue and clean-up operations took place. The A46 was fully re-opened at 10.10pm.

‘Be careful out there people, there are some crazy drivers around!”
The company has handed the footage to Humberside Police.
