Abstract
A method for stabilizing a vehicle including a trailer drawn by the vehicle including the steps of: determining the yaw rate of the vehicle; determining the reference yaw rate in a vehicle model; producing a difference value from the yaw rate and the reference yaw rate; weighting the difference value with a signal describing the steering dynamics; producing a signal to determine the side of intervention and/or the wheel of intervention and/or the steering angle direction of the vehicle from the tendency to change of the weighted difference value, and applying a counteracting moment depending on the amplitude and the tendency to change of the weighted difference value.
