Pull the lever then do an arm pump so the trolley honks its horn

A horn? On a trolley??? Would it not have a whistle?

Whatever way keeps them farthest from me, that’s the way I pull/push the lever

I’m pulling the lever but not to wave at those fatcat bastards but to make them late! Hah!

Why don’t people think of derailimg the trolley by switching track at the wrong moment in The Trolley Problem?
Frozengyro@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I’m here for the multitrack drifting, killing everyone on both tracks and everyone on the train when it derails.
What do you mean that’s the worst possible outcome?

Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply that!
By saying “at the wrong moment” I was referring to the precise period of time at which pulling the lever could force the trolley to derail.Funny: do note that The Trolley Problem usually doesn’t inform us of the presence of passengers in the trolley. If we can make up things on the tracks for fun, a… ghost trolley or self-driving (KEK) trolley with no mortals in it, is another fun-one to imagine!
Really makes it a trolly problem, for you all of a sudden, huh?
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
No no no…the train is on its way to pickup and transport nuclear war heads.
If you derail the train, we can’t blow up tens of thoussnds of innocent people in Nagasaki!

however, doing so will increase the length of the trolly, thereby its traveltime, thereby making a chaos of the schedule and cause a collision which will kill everyone onboard

Introverts start nail biting…

plot twist: The abrupt curves of the track derail the trolley, killing everyone onboard

Question is it an open air trolley or are all of the windows sealed shut
