Had driveway resealed and it is super slick with just rain, let alone winter conditions. What can I do to roughen it up?

Ayuh,....... Asphalt, or concrete,..??
If asphalt, Quit sealing it so often,......
If yer doing it to make it black again, that's what makes it so slippery,......
If the asphalt is failing, have it repaved,......
Also, the sealing compound is available with sand added to it,....

What did they seal it with?

I seal my drive with HD-MMA-6600, which apparently is a HD6600 is a water based acrylic sealer. I don't think you can add an anti-skid agent to it. It's biggest downside is that it's like walking on wet plastic when it rains... Might ask over in the flooring sub, but they'll probably want to know what it was sealed with. Materials that you can add anti-skid agents to really do help (like polyurea).
