Stuck in the Rain

While driving to work this morning I found myself in a most unexpected predicament.  I, along with many other drivers, found myself stuck while trying to climb Madison to the top of Capital Hill in Seattle.  The road was so slick from the rain that many cars were sliding backwards while their wheels merely spun.  This not only caused quite a back up which only made the matter worse, it was also dangerous as many cars almost slid into the car behind them.  Will everyone need to have an all-wheel drive car to drive in this town year round?  Is there something we can do to prevent the roads from being so slick after every rain or will Seattle have to shut down in the rain like we do in the snow?  Watch the video to see for yourself.
