Abstract
A method performs an at least partially automated maneuver. When an increased probability of collision of the vehicle with a vehicle in front is recognized, at least the decision to divert and/or the decision to return, i.e. the decision to return to the lane in which the vehicle was travelling before the diversion, is controlled as a function of a parameter of the traffic situation in front of the vehicle in front.
