Abstract
A driver assistance system for automated longitudinal guidance of a motor vehicle configured to detect at least one turning opportunity for the motor vehicle, and to reduce the speed of the motor vehicle in accordance with the at least one detected turning opportunity.
Claims12
A driver assistance system for automated longitudinal guidance of a motor vehicle, the driver assistance system configured to:
- detect at least one turning-off possibility for the motor vehicle in a partial region of a driving route lying in front of the motor vehicle in a direction of travel of the motor vehicle;
- determine a location of a first end of the partial region dependent on a first predefined vehicle deceleration rate;
- determine a location of a second end of the partial region dependent on a second predefined vehicle deceleration rate different from the first predefined vehicle deceleration rate;
- and
- decrease a speed of the motor vehicle in a manner that is dependent on the at least one detected turning-off possibility.
