fix the exhaust.

don't drive over them so it hits it.

no.....undo the clamps and move it so it goes higher.

it will be the middle bit that will be rubbing,have a look and go from there.

Basic question of physics, ground/exhaust if they are too close they hit.
Maybe your car is too low ?, try adjusting it first though
