That's where ferry lifts come in handy on newer buses! My old school had a similar problem turning in, as well as X55, 775 and X63 in Neath going under a railway bridge (although they seem to manage it now even not lifted whereas they often used to catch otherwise, I recall a few months ago I was sitting up the back when the front caught slightly and the back smacked the ground very hard, it genuinely hurts! It must have been altered inconspicuously since although you still have to be careful). In school First just gave up trying to avoid it because they knew it would always ground every morning so the driver would just grit his/her teeth, and South Wales Transport begun to refuse full stop to enter the school when they received their 4 new MCVs in 2009. It's usually safe to have it scrape the ground so long as it doesn't get beached, undercarriage protection is there for that.
