Right, rather obviously. The orphans are saved either way, so no factor there. The killing Leftie does is inadvertent, and motivation does matter in a situation such as this. The kidney patients get saved either way, so no factor. Easy


Orphans: Saved (+30 lives)
Hearts over Men (net +5 lives, and deaths by accident during good deed)
Kidney Patients (+20 lives)

Choosing right ends up a net +55 lives, and no guilty factor. for the 6 that die (5 die in an accident, the man run over wants to kill for the sake of killing)
