You're right that this will negatively affect some drivers, but it's not necessarily true that every driver removed from the road is worse off. Some of the 25% increase in cyclists may have been drivers who preferred to cycle but did not feel safe doing so. Anecdotally, I feel that way here in NYC -- I'd almost always rather bike (and it's often faster), but will sometimes take an Uber/Lyft because I don't feel safe biking in traffic, thus becoming traffic myself and perpetuating the vicious cycle.
