Abstract
A method for determining a steering angle amplitude of a steering wheel of a vehicle likely to occur during a lane change, including determining a steering angle measured value of a steering wheel of a vehicle at a time of measurement during a lane change; determining a steering angular velocity measured value of the steering wheel at the time of measurement; and determining a steering angle amplitude likely to occur during the lane change at a later point in time than the time of measurement based on the at least the steering angle measured value at the steering angular velocity measured value at the time of measurement.
