Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011012344A1] A method for increasing the safety of a vehicle (1) is proposed, wherein an area (A, B, C) around the vehicle (1) is scanned, and a distance (a) between at least one point on the vehicle (1) and a physical limit (2) of this area (A, B, C) is measured in at least one direction. Next, a test is made as to whether the distance (a) exceeds a predefinable threshold value, and finally, a warning signal is output and/or the vehicle (1) is decelerated if the result of the test is positive. Moreover, a central processing unit (4) for a corresponding driver assistance system and a driver assistance system are specified.
