Abstract

An apparatus and method for controlling a vehicle is proposed. Detection of a traffic light along the trajectory of a cruising vehicle and a determination of current and future traffic light statuses is performed. It is determined whether the vehicle can arrive at the traffic light during a passing status in accordance with an adaptation of the kinematic vehicle state. Signals are provided via a human 10 machine interface corresponding to various kinematic vehicle state adaptation scenarios in order to enable an arrival at the traffic light during a passing status. In response to the respective human machine interface signals, control of the vehicle can be performed accordingly.
