Abstract
Methods and systems for controlling driving maneuvers of a motor vehicle driving in a current driving lane on a road are described. Spatio-temporal regions defining free regions and/or occupied regions in the current driving lane and a further driving lane, adjacent to the current driving lane of the motor vehicle, are determined. Changing regions, in which a driving lane change between the current and the further driving lanes is possible, and/or lane-keeping regions, in which a driving lane change between the current and the further driving lanes is not possible, are determined based on the free and/or occupied regions. Possible driving maneuvers of the motor vehicle at least between changing regions and/or lane-keeping regions that adjoin one another in pairs are determined and executed.
