Topic for A1 (consider for week 2)

A1
There is a runaway trolley barreling down the railway tracks. Ahead, on the tracks, there are five people tied up and unable to move.

A1
You are standing some distance off in the train yard, next to a lever. If you pull the lever, the trolley will switch to a different set of tracks.

A1
However, you notice that there is one person on the side track. You have two options:

A1
1. Do nothing and allow the trolley to kill the five people on the main track.

A1
2. Pull the lever, diverting the trolley onto the side track where it will kill one person.
