Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for compensating a yaw moment acting on a vehicle which is caused by asymmetrical braking forces on at least one vehicle axle. In the method, at least one vehicle-related condition is queried after initiation of a braking operation, a yaw variable present on the vehicle is detected, the value of the detected yaw variable is compared with a yaw variable limit value, a corrective steering angle is determined depending on the difference and/or the change in the difference between the value of the detected yaw variable and the yaw variable limit value, taking into account the sign of the yaw variable, and, lastly, a corrective steering angle is automatically set on at least one vehicle wheel of a steered vehicle axle. The disclosure also relates to an apparatus for compensating a yaw moment acting on a vehicle.
