Explanation:

At first it may seem statement I is the cause and II is effect, but the reduction in the accidents may not be a direct impact of a new traffic light. The first sentence states that the new traffic lights are specially designed to cope with the increasing traffic problems and roadblocks. So, it cannot be said that II is the effect of I. The reduction in the number of accidents could be caused by factors like wellmaintained road, speed limits, etc. Statement I is caused by increasing
traffic blocks. So, both statements are effects with independent causes.
