You are at a lever. A trolley is approaching 5 people tied to the track. You can pull the lever to diver the trolley to the other track, giving another person at the lever the same options you had.

Do you pull the lever?

Pull the lever. 1. I'll save the people down the line from the anguish of having to choose. 2. I don't want to risk the next person pulling the lever for the wrong reasons. 3. If I don't pull the lever, I might be the person laying on the track when someone else pulls the lever. This is why I'm either (a) no good at, or (b) chaotic good at, RPGs.
