Daredevil's senses are a bit of a plot device. I think it stems from some form of misguided emancipatory ideal that handicapped people should not be crippled by their weaknesses. So they make them do stuff they really, really couldn't. I mean, it's so much more impressive when a blind person tells you that he can hear a train coming from 300.000.000.000.000 miles away or that can he walk a tightrope on one foot.
It's kind of lame, though. It's okay to have a weakness, we shouldn't have to compensate for EVERYTHING we lack. Oh well.

Actually, Daredevil has driven a car.
And flown a plane, if I do recall correctly.
He CAN see. I don't think you understand that he can look at you and see every feature you have, just not in color. They have shown his perspective while looking at a woman and he could see her just fine, every detail even better than we see. The only thing was it was all different shades of the same color which has been depicted as red, green, black and even purple.
