Abstract
A method for preventing unwanted rolling away of a stationary vehicle maintains a brake pressure in wheel brake cylinders. The brake pressure is maintained in dependence on the actuation of the brake pedal, and is maintained only if the current brake pressure exceeds a brake pressure corresponding to the holding pressure by a certain amount. This brake pressure can be applied at will by the driver.
