And also ignorant about how those two eyes have binocular vision, adjustable positions, and can look in multiple mirrors for full spatial awareness.

There are good arguments but this isn’t one. Many humans (like me!) drive fine without binocular vision. And the cars have many cameras all around, with wide angle lenses that are watching everything all the time, when a human can only focus in one direction at a time.
I thought only the front view has binocular vision on the cars. The others are single, with no depth perception. How does it know how close objects are outside this forward cone?

So your eye does not have an adjustable position and you cannot use mirrors?
Both are easily compensated for by having many cameras.
Binocular vision is not only relevant for driving (well, maybe for the steering wheel, but that's not the point).
It gives us depth perception. And moving the eyes and/or head gives the depth perception over a wide field of view.
