Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for determining the fatigue of a driver of a motor vehicle, wherein the fatigue is determined while taking into account the steering behavior of the driver, characterized in that the method includes the following steps: determination of a hysteresis of the steering system or the fatigue detection system, and taking into account the detected hysteresis in the determination of the fatigue of the driver. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to a device that is set up to execute the method.
