A driver assistance system for a motor vehicle includes at least one driving data sensor for sensing driving data that characterize the driving condition of the motor vehicle, and an electrical controller configured to initiate autonomous emergency braking of the motor vehicle when predetermined driving data has been sensed. A device is provided that is configured to detect a vehicle located in front of the motor vehicle in the direction of travel of the motor vehicle. The electrical controller maintains a brake of the motor vehicle in braking position or brings the brake into the braking position following an emergency braking action when a preceding vehicle is detected.

Driver assistance system for a motor vehicle

A driving assistance method is provided for a vehicle in which the speed of the vehicle is controlled by means of a longitudinal guidance control system and the lateral guidance of the vehicle is controlled by means of a lateral guidance control system, and wherein lateral guidance control, which includes yaw-rate control and/or lateral acceleration limitation, has priority over speed control. To reduce the danger of an unstable handling condition of the vehicle, and to assist the vehicle operator in driving the vehicle, the longitudinal guidance control system is activated during lateral guidance control and, after lateral guidance control has ended, the longitudinal guidance control system is turned off or is shifted to an operating condition that accelerates the vehicle with longitudinal acceleration below a predetermined index longitudinal acceleration.
