Abstract

An automated driving system with assistance for a driver in performing a non-driving activity includes an assistance device configured to assist the driver in performing the non-driving activity. The automated driving system, in a first operating state controls the vehicle in an automated manner, and in a second operating state hands over control of the vehicle to the driver. The assistance device is configured to assist the driver in performing the non-driving activity if the automated driving system switches from the first operating state to the second operating state.
