Default Lowering Springs..the death of ground effects?

I have a weird question for all you guys with lowered stangs, 1"-2"s. When you go over speedbumps at a school or anywhere else do the ground effects get caught on them and get messed up? Do you have to find an alternate route around them?

You will be more less safe with a 1.5" drop, more than that and you could be in trouble.
