Abstract

A method for carrying out autonomous braking in a two-wheeled motor vehicle, where the necessity of vehicle deceleration is detected with the aid of a surround sensor system. When vehicle deceleration is necessary, prior to its execution, a test braking action independent of a rider and of a predefined temporal length is carried out. During or after the execution of the test braking action, a rider readiness variable characterizing the readiness of the rider to master the vehicle deceleration detected as necessary is ascertained. After completion of the test braking action, the vehicle deceleration is initiated, the time characteristic of the vehicle deceleration being a function of the rider readiness variable.
