    Fair enough… It would have been better stated as a train problem than a trolley problem. But I personally wouldn’t ding the philosophy majors too hard for that.

    And still, I have no idea what you could throw in front of a trolley to slow it down appreciably with only a few seconds to think.

      Anything not bolted down, benches, trash cans, hell if it’s small enough you could try throwing stuff at it directly to tip it off the track
