Abstract

An operating method for a vehicle includes a driving in manual mode, in which a longitudinal movement and a lateral movement are controlled by a human driver, and a driving in autonomous mode, in which the longitudinal movement and the lateral movement are controlled by an automated system. In the method, an alerting of the human driver is activated in particular in autonomous mode when the automated system receives a first distance that separates the vehicle from an end of the zone in which the autonomous mode is authorized. An automatic stopping of the vehicle before reaching the zone end is activated in autonomous mode when the human driver does not resume control of the vehicle after receiving the first distance from the automated system.
