METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR THE ADAPTATION OF THE DRIVING OF A VEHICLE ON A ROADWAY IN ASSOCIATION WITH TAKING A CURVE

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for the adaptation of the driving of a vehicle on a roadway in association with taking a curve. The method comprises the steps to determine (S1 ) the degree of curvature along the route of the vehicle and to adapt (S2) the speed of the vehicle based on the lateral acceleration of the vehicle. The method comprises further the steps to determine (S3) a maximum permitted lateral acceleration; and to adapt (S4) the maximum permitted lateral acceleration depending on properties of the vehicle and/or the surroundings that influence the safe driving of the vehicle when taking a curve. The step to adapt the maximum permitted lateral acceleration includes the step to determine a factor that corresponds to the degree to which the said properties of the vehicle and/or the surroundings influence safe driving of the vehicle when taking the curve, whereby the said factor includes the influence of properties of the surroundings in the form of the effective width of the traffic lane in which the vehicle is being driven. The present invention relates also to a system for the adaptation of the driving of a vehicle on a roadway in association with taking a curve. The present invention relates also to a motor vehicle. The present invention relates also to a computer program and a computer program product.
