Abstract
A respective range of environment recording sensors of the vehicle is estimated by evaluating sensor signals of the sensors to check whether the ranges of the sensors respectively is sufficient for automated driving operation. If only one of, or only a predetermined subset of, the sensors do not have a sufficient estimated range, the vehicle continues to be moved in automated driving operation maintaining a speed of the vehicle or reducing it to a predetermined limited extent. A request to take over a driving task is output instantly or after a pre-determined time delay. If all of the sensors or more or different sensors than the predetermined subset do not have a sufficient estimated range, the vehicle continues to be moved with the speed of the vehicle reduced to a predetermined more significant extent, and the request to take over the task of driving the vehicle is instantly output.
