Abstract:
1. A method for steering assistance of a motor vehicle driver of a motor vehicle driver of a motor vehicle in dangerous situations, in which method the motor vehicle is equipped to detect and influence a steering device of the motor vehicle, the method comprising: calculating by a processor, driving cases of all drivable and stable movement trajectories on the basis of data of the vehicle environment detection means, detecting and evaluating, by the processor, a current steering wheel actuation with regard to the presence of a dangerous situation, wherein when a dangerous situation is detected by a sensor, a movement trajectory of the vehicle is determined by the processor which corresponds to a driving maneuver indicated by an associated current steering wheel actuation, wherein an actuator assisted the driver, by influencing the steering device and the current steering angle of the vehicle with a torque applied to the steering device, in continuing the driving maneuver as a function of the determined movement trajectory, wherein the processor compares the current steering wheel angle of the vehicle to an angle tolerance band around a desired steering angle associated with the movement trajectory, and wherein in response to the driver moving the current steering wheel angle from inside the tolerance band to outside the tolerance band, the processor controls the actuator to automatically:
