Why would a lyft driver be paying SF rent? The notion that low income earners ought to be renting in extremely expensive neighborhoods is nonsense.
If I can commute across the bay so can everyone else.

What's your response going to be when Oakland also becomes "extremely expensive neighborhoods" (if it isn't already)?
But the more general answer to your question: When supply outstrips demand the only reasonable response is to build more housing.
Complaining that driving jobs have low value isn't constructive. The value of those jobs will approach zero soon due to technology. Instead, address the economic imbalance and let supply meet the demand.
