Abstract

A method for controlling functions in a transportation vehicle wherein a driving behavior of a driver is determined. To be able to classify the driving behavior of the driver, a driving behavior of other drivers is also provided. The driving behavior of the one driver is evaluated based on the driving behavior of the other drivers for at least one specific driving situation, and functions in the transportation vehicle are actuated based on the evaluation thereby achieving a comfortable adjustment of the functions for the driver.
