Option 2: Lie. When caught, lie about having lied.

You are at the trolley switch, and are the CEO of the trolley line. An out-of-control trolley worth $20 million is heading toward a section of track where five workers are trapped. The alternate track is unmaintained, and will probably destroy the trolley beyond repair. Given the average wrongful death payout of one million dollars, you don’t pull the switch, but you still face a minority shareholder lawsuit over the time you wasted considering it.

Note: “Would Be a Catastrophe” even back when the agencies involved in mitigating the disaster still existed.
