Really? My experience has been extremely different, albeit both of us only really have antidotes.

My friends/coworkers who got jobs in the city directly after college all don't have cars. Think 2013-2018 graduates. The only ones with cars, either grew up in the bay, or have worked outside the city at some point. Mind you these are all people who have a license in their prior state/country.

How many of these people would stay in SF if Lyft/Uber were banned entirely?

At first most if not all, but it might play a part in their long term goals. Hard to say though.

You meant "anecdotes", right? Autocorrect, probably.
