None of those conditions rise to the level of "defect". A reasonable person driving in a reasonable manner could have easily traveled that road without an accident. The cause of the accident was not the road. It was a drunk driver.
Since this was a regular party spot I am sure that many other people had been able to drive through the cemetery at night without wrecking.
