Cops in LA can't drive in the rain either!

So everyone jokes about how LA drivers absolutely suck driving in the rain. No joke, if it's even just a drizzle, it's best to stay off the road. People have no concept of rain = slick road; especially when it hasn't rained in months and there's oil all over the road. So everyone speeds like usual and when it comes time to get on the brakes hard (people like to speed up to red lights and slam on the brakes for some reason, even in a Prius), they can't stop and rear-end someone. Happened to two guys at work already and almost happened to me yesterday.

Back to the subject of the title. I'm on a road that goes up a hill and there's a cop in the next lane over a few cars ahead. It's wet out and we're accelerating from a stop, and the rear of the cop car is fishtailing all over the place! Uh... wet roads means you can't accelerate as hard either. Freakin idoit.
