Abstract
In a method for ending shoulder driving, it is detected by means of a detection unit of a motor vehicle that a wheel is located on a shoulder. By means of a sensor unit, a driver's reaction is recorded, and by means of a computing unit, the driver's reaction is assigned to one of at least two intensity classes. By means of a control unit, an intervention in controlling the vehicle is undertaken counteracting the driver's reaction when the driver's reaction has been assigned to a first intensity class, and an intervention supporting the driver's reaction is undertaken when the driver's reaction has been assigned to a second intensity class.
