Incorrect. There are plenty of cars that use smooth reflectors without a diffusing lens.
Yes, it will pass inspection as they are not required.

Example: this Volvo S80 in my driveway uses a halogen bulb with a smooth reflector and no diffusing lens.



Read up on DOT lighting regulation and show where it says a diffusing lens is required.
(Hint: it doesn't )
