My Apple Watch 4 is very inaccurate with step counting as it counts steps while driving, it gives me like extra 400 hundred starts a day for a 2-3 hour drive

But it counts steps even if I sleep while being a passenger without arm movement

Gee, I wish mine did that so I could convince my doctor that I'm walking!
It will if you arms are moving. It just the nature of the watch as it tracks movement.
Ok you watch needs to be taken back to the Apple Store to have it examined. As my does does when I am sleeping move.
Ok I tested it also with a Fitbit and see the same thing, and by big bumps it even counts as climbed steps... so I guess this is normal and just the nature of how the watch determines steps
As long as you are aware of it you can adjust it to take it in to account when calculating your workouts.
