The invention relates to a driver assistance system for a motor vehicle, the motor vehicle and a method for operating same. In some embodiments, an obstacle is detected based on environmental data and a risk of collision is determined in consideration of driving state data. Further, an evasion trajectory for preventing a collision of the motor vehicle with the obstacle is determined. The driver assistance system is configured to detect another oncoming vehicle for which the risk of collision is greater than a predefined first threshold value as the obstacle. Further, the driver assistance system is configured to check whether a control action of a driver of the motor vehicle is guiding same along the determined evasion trajectory and, if this is not the case, to modify the control action of the driver automatically such that the motor vehicle is guided along the determined evasion trajectory by the modified control action.

Driver assistance system for a motor vehicle, motor vehicle and method for operating a motor vehicle

A method and an apparatus for safely parking a vehicle, wherein after identifying an emergency situation of the motor vehicle, an emergency stopping position region is selected from a digital map, and the vehicle is parked within the emergency stopping position region by an automatic driving function. The method includes registering the surroundings, determining stationary objects and conditions in the vicinity of the vehicle within the selected emergency stopping position region, checking the conditions in the vicinity of the vehicle and the stationary objects within the emergency stopping position region regarding parking the vehicle in an optimized manner and determining an optimized emergency stopping position within the emergency stopping position region, and parking the vehicle at the optimized emergency stopping position within the emergency stopping position region using the automatic driving function.
