Abstract

A method is presented for controlling a motor vehicle (10). Initially, driving maneuver data containing information concerning multiple possible, different driving maneuvers of the motor vehicle (10) are generated and/or received. Traffic data containing information concerning at least one undisturbed predicted trajectory of at least one further road user (20, 22, 24) are generated and/or received. An influence of the at least one driving maneuver on the trajectory of the at least one further road user (20, 22, 24) is determined, based on the driving maneuver data and the traffic data, and a characteristic variable is ascertained that describes the influence of the at least one driving maneuver on the at least one further road user (20, 22, 24). In addition, a system (34) for controlling a motor vehicle (10) is proposed.
