Abstract
A method for increasing safety at a crossing system including crosswalk. The method includes: receiving environmental signals representing an environment, including a crossing system, of a motor vehicle approaching the crossing system and wanting to cross the crossing system; specifying a boundary condition and/or an instruction for action for a crossing system maneuver to be planned for the motor vehicle on the basis of the environmental signals; planning a crossing system maneuver for the motor vehicle based on the environmental signals including ascertaining a target trajectory, fulfilling the specification, for the motor vehicle based on the specification, wherein, if no target trajectory fulfilling the specification can be ascertained for the motor vehicle, the planning includes using a relaxed, at least one boundary condition and/or a relaxed, at least one instruction for action to ascertain a fallback target trajectory fulfilling the relaxed specification; outputting the correspondingly ascertained target trajectory.
