Abstract
A computer-implemented method for handling yaw instability of a vehicle is provided. The method includes a use of separate prediction models for a short-term time period and a long-term time period for predicting future steering angle information and a future longitudinal motion of the vehicle for the respective periods. The method also includes, based on the respective predicted future steering angle information and future longitudinal motion of the vehicle, estimating a respective short-term and long-term risk for yaw instability of the vehicle. The method also includes, on the basis of the estimated short-term risk and long-term risk, respectively, determining whether or not to trigger an alert and/or to trigger a preventive action for preventing a yaw instability of the vehicle.
