So now you killed the 10 people that were in the train, congrats.
It's not going to flip. Tolleys derail all the time (ask people living in Wrocław). They can't go fast enough to flip. It will just stop after couple of meters.
Yeah, there has never been a single death from a trolley derailment, no sir not a one.
So now we have to check the global statistics and figure out what's the probability is of someone dying in a derailment and estimate if we should risk it or just let the one guy die. Fun!
