Abstract

A method for transferring control of a vehicle from automated vehicle control by a control unit to manual vehicle control by a driver by a control lever, wherein the control lever is used at least to accelerate, brake, and steer the vehicle, wherein there is also at least one first display screen for displaying driving information, including at least an actual speed and an actual trajectory of the vehicle and a speed and a trajectory based on the actual position of the control lever, and wherein automated vehicle control is transferred to manual vehicle control when the actual speed of the vehicle corresponds graphically to the speed based on the actual position of the control lever and the actual trajectory of the vehicle corresponds graphically to the trajectory based on the actual position of the control lever on the first display screen.
