A brake system for a transportation vehicle, a transportation vehicle having a brake system, and a method for operating a brake system. The brake system has two control units, wherein the respective control unit actuates a respective brake circuit of the brake system, which includes two of four service brakes and one of two electric parking brakes of the brake system. In response to a defect in one of the brake circuits, the control unit of the other brake circuit actuates the respective brakes of the other brake circuit, to carry out trailer combination stabilization of a trailer combination having the transportation vehicle and a trailer coupled to the transportation vehicle; and/or to steer the transportation vehicle in the case of a defect in a steering system of the transportation vehicle based on a steering command of a control device for autonomous driving.
