Notably, Ireland achieved a lot of their reductions in road deaths by taking all the people walking and biking and putting them in a car instead. For instance, compared to the mid-80's about 250% as many kids are driven to school, half as many take public transport, and half as many walk or bike.
Certainly, when I lived there Ireland was a terrible place to bike or walk.

There's noticeably more serious accidents too, although the data won't be available until mid-2024 to confirm.
