Abstract

The invention relates to a method for decelerating a vehicle () moving at low speed (vV), in particular by using a hydraulically or pneumatically operated braking system (), with the following steps: determining, by means of the speed sensor (), whether the speed (vV) of the vehicle () falls short of a predeterminable first limiting value (vC); if the speed (vV) of the vehicle () falls short of the first limiting value, increasing the propulsion torque (MA) transmitted to the drive train (); and decelerating the vehicle () by increasing the braking torque (MB) acting on the wheels () by means of the controller (36).
