Abstract
A method for transferring the drive torque from the wheels having a low traction to the wheels having a higher traction, the method being configured for vehicles in which not all driven wheels are equipped with a rotational speed sensor. In order to be able to perform a starting aid function, it is provided to measure the rotational speed of the cardan shaft and to put it in relation to the wheel rotational speed of at least one wheel which has a rotational speed sensor. If the deviation between the cardan shaft rotational speed and the measured wheel rotational speed is too high, at least one of the wheels, which does not have a rotational speed sensor, is braked automatically so that the vehicle is able to start.
