We don't need two eyes to drive. And we don't need two eyes to gauge depth. Neither does a machine, but adding stereoscopic cameras is not hard.
The stereoscopic effect is very poor on driving distances, doesn't help us that much. Primarily we use clues form the environment to gauge distances. We also have to focus our eyes to the correct distance - that also tells us how far an object is.
Primarily we have had an insane amount of training to understand our world. An understanding that a self-driving car will never achieve unless singularity happens. It might not need that, but it will need other ways to compensate for it.
