Abstract
A device for assisting the driving of a motor vehicle, wherein it includes a processing unit configured to calculate the angular position of at least one wheel of the vehicle relative to a reference angular position and to generate a light signal representative of the angular position of said at least one wheel relative to the reference position. Also included is a method for assisting the driving of a motor vehicle equipped with such a device. The method includes a step of definition of the reference axis within the processing unit, a step of definition of the reference position within the processing unit, a step of calculation within the processing unit of the angular position of at least one wheel of the vehicle relative to the reference position, and a step of generation, inside the cab of the vehicle, of a light signal representative of the angular position of the at least one wheel relative to the reference position.
