Dilemmas poll
May. 17th, 2002 10:59 amYou are sitting by a railway junction, and you see a train approaching rapidly. You also see - oh no! - some children on the tracks!
You cannot stop the train, nor clear the tracks in time. The only thing you can do is decide which track the train goes down - if you do nothing, six children will certainly be killed on one track. If you chose to throw a switch, two children will be killed on the other.
