Probably a better idea would be reinforce the pillars so they bend but
don't snap but make the place where they join the roof fairly weak so
the roof effectively slides off over the top of them. The roof being
shoved back dissappates the energy but the reinforced pillars stop it
squashing the passengers.

No, it'd just be uncontrolled then.

Perhaps the driver should have a radar warning device like airline pilots
"Pull up, Pull up"!

That seems like a good idea to me. Just have some bleeper which gets
more and more urgent and if the computer thinks the bus is going to
strike the bridge then it slams on the breaks. The technology exists
to do it.
