A method for monitoring vehicle handling of a vehicle with respect to vehicle stability using a measured variable reflecting a yaw rate or lateral acceleration of the vehicle and a comparison value derived from a steering angle specified by a driver of the vehicle, the method comprising the acts of:

  • normalizing gradients of regression lines of the measured variable and the comparison value in relation to one another;

    comparing continuously over a number of analysis time windows normalized gradients of the regression lines; and
