Control system adapted and determined for use in a motor vehicle to identify motor vehicles driving in front based on environmental data obtained by at least one environmental sensor associated with the motor vehicle, wherein the at least one environmental sensor is adapted to provide the environmental data, which represents the area in front of the motor vehicle, to an electronic control of the control system, and wherein the control system is at least adapted and determined to - capture another motor vehicle participating in the traffic with the at least one environmental sensor, - determine positions of the other motor vehicle for a predetermined time interval, - determine at the end of the time interval whether a) a current position of the own motor vehicle lies ahead of at least one of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle; b) a lateral distance to a respectively next position of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle ahead of and behind the current position of the own motor vehicle does not exceed a predetermined value; and c) a number of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle, which are located ahead of the current position of the own motor vehicle, exceeds a predetermined minimum number; - if it was determined that a), b) and c) have been fulfilled, estimating a trajectory from the determined positions of the other motor vehicle, and - selecting the other motor vehicle in order to follow this based on a deviation measurement between the estimated trajectory of the other motor vehicle and a trajectory of the own motor vehicle. - capture another motor vehicle participating in the traffic with the at least one environmental sensor, - determine positions of the other motor vehicle for a predetermined time interval, - determine at the end of the time interval whether a) a current position of the own motor vehicle lies ahead of at least one of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle; b) a lateral distance to a respectively next position of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle ahead of and behind the current position of the own motor vehicle does not exceed a predetermined value; and c) a number of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle, which are located ahead of the current position of the own motor vehicle, exceeds a predetermined minimum number; a) a current position of the own motor vehicle lies ahead of at least one of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle; b) a lateral distance to a respectively next position of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle ahead of and behind the current position of the own motor vehicle does not exceed a predetermined value; and c) a number of the determined positions of the other motor vehicle, which are located ahead of the current position of the own motor vehicle, exceeds a predetermined minimum number; - if it was determined that a), b) and c) have been fulfilled, estimating a trajectory from the determined positions of the other motor vehicle, and - selecting the other motor vehicle in order to follow this based on a deviation measurement between the estimated trajectory of the other motor vehicle and a trajectory of the own motor vehicle.
