Abstract
A method for assisting the driver of a vehicle (10) during a driving maneuver such as, for example, a parking or positioning maneuver. In such a case, a reference trajectory (16) along which the vehicle (10) is to be moved is determined. A steering wheel position which is to be set and which steers the vehicle along the reference trajectory (16) is indicated to the driver during the driving maneuver. A steering angle deviation between the actual steering angle which is actually set by the driver and the setpoint steering angle which corresponds to the requested steering wheel position is corrected independently of the driver.

15. A method for assisting the driver of a vehicle during a driving maneuver, a reference trajectory corresponding to the driving maneuver being determined, the vehicle to be moved along the reference trajectory during the driving maneuver, the steering wheel position to be respectively set to steer the vehicle along the reference trajectory being indicated to the driver during the driving maneuver, the method comprising:
correcting, independently of the driver, a steering angle deviation between an actual steering angle actually set by the driver and a setpoint steering angle corresponding to the indicated steering wheel position, the driver-independent correction of the steering angle deviation taking place only if the steering angle deviation lies within a predefined steering angle correction range. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A vehicle comprising:
-
vehicle wheels having a steering angle;
a steering wheel connected to the vehicle wheels and influencing the steering angle;
a steering assistance device connected to the vehicle wheels and influencing the steering angle;
an indicator for indicating a reference trajectory of the vehicle corresponding to a driving maneuver;
an evaluation unit determining a steering angle deviation between an actual angle of the steering wheel and a setpoint angle corresponding to the reference trajectory, the evaluation unit controlling the steering assistance device independently of the driver when the steering angle deviation is less than a predefined angle so that the steering angle is set to the setpoint angle.
