Abstract

An approach for operating a motor vehicle that is designed for an autonomous and/or partially autonomous driving operation in which the motor vehicle is moved along a predetermined driving trajectory. During the autonomous or partially autonomous driving operation, a driving trajectory running centrally or substantially centrally along the lane traveled is shifted to the edge of the lane on the basis of lane information describing the lane currently traveled by the motor vehicle, and on the basis of speed information describing a current speed of the motor vehicle, and on the basis of at least one piece of traffic information describing a current traffic volume in the surroundings of the motor vehicle. Alternatively, or in addition, the motor vehicle is stopped before a bottleneck or an intersection is entered on the basis of road-course information describing the bottleneck or the intersection along the road course to be traveled, and additionally on the basis of emergency vehicle information describing the presence of an emergency vehicle in the surroundings of the motor vehicle, and/or on the basis of accident information describing an accident along the road course to be traveled.
