3 point hitch roller?

Rolling it won't stop erosion. As Mark suggested crusher run may be the ticket or fill the rut with 3/4 crushed stone. No fines or sand in it to wash out.

Or maybe the best solution is adding some drainage ditchs on the sides, and water bars across the driveway (or a nice crown on the drive) for proper drainage. If the OP is letting the water run straight down the road, even with crush run on top, it will likely wash out the loose soil underneath it in places over time.

Here is a photo of our entrance road after 18 tons of crusher run dumped and graded with a JD 3032e and then 6 tons of gravel after 5 straight days of heavy rain.
Any other year, there would have been huge ruts at the bottom of both grades.
