Abstract

A driver assistance method by a control device is to receive driving environmental data from identically constructed motor vehicle sensor technologies of a first motor vehicle, as well as from at least one further motor vehicle, which drive on a set road section in an at least partially autonomous driving mode. Each motor vehicle may provide a road section model for each of the motor vehicles with an algorithm recorded in each respective motor vehicle. The control device examines the road section models and/or the algorithms for a feasibility of the at least partially autonomous driving mode for the first motor vehicle, evaluates the algorithms of each motor vehicle based on a comparison of the road models, and sets that algorithm, which satisfies the set feasibility criterion with the highest probability, as the target algorithm. The control device sets the road section as a check section if the set feasibility criterion is not satisfied for the first motor vehicle, and generates and transfers an early warning signal to the further motor vehicles.
