Excellent suggestions elsewhere include:
1) Shift the arrows which would be overlapping down their respective lanes until they no longer overlap, allowing you to tap the arrow, even if it's further down the road in the UI.
2) Prioritizing the arrow for the route you are mapped to follow, so at least you can close the ramp you were expecting to take when it's closed.
3) Adding a "Ramp Closed?" question to the UI if one skips an on or off ramp for a highway, on the assumption that it's more likely that a ramp is skipped because it's closed or traffic jammed than due to simply missing the ramp.
The big problem here is that closed ramps come out of nowhere due to construction and accidents; for highways, except for perhaps an accident on the road, a closed ramp is a route-destroying incident, but the UI that currently exists makes it nearly impossible for somebody to actually close the ramp when they notice it... which means that every other driver behind them is not only being sent on a route with a closed ramp, but they, too, get frustrated by the inability to close it.
