Abstract

A vehicle system has a first operating mode and a second operating mode. The first operating mode is configured to execute a functionality of the vehicle system in driving mode based on acquired sensor signals and to operate the vehicle in an at least partially automated manner through interventions in vehicle guidance based on the result of the executed functionality. The second operating mode is configured to change a degree of the effectiveness of the interventions in the driving mode and/or a degree of the effectiveness of an operation decoupled from the vehicle guidance, and, when executing a functionality of the vehicle system with a changed degree of the effectiveness of an intervention in the vehicle guidance and/or a changed degree of the effectiveness of an operation decoupled from the vehicle guidance, to acquire operating data of the vehicle and/or feedback data from the user of the vehicle.
