It wont be possible for any taxi company to provide minimum hourly wages without enforcing peoples schedules. I mean, a group of drivers could choose to drive only between 22-06 during weekdays and thus get paid minimum wage for basically sleeping in their car.

Sure, they have to control how many people are on-pay at any given time. That doesn't require preset schedule; you can have a combination of:
(1) Minimum hourly wage,
(2) Dynamic, demand-based minimum targets and maximum on-payroll quota, where additional drivers aren't permitted to come on-shift of the current quota is reached.
(3) Dynamic, automatic, first-come first-served offers of above-minimum pay if current local staffing is below the minimum target.
