Abstract

The present disclosure relate to a motor vehicle comprising a sensor device for detecting the position and the distance from an object located in front of the motor vehicle and a device for projecting a light marker onto the ground in the region of the object, wherein the device is configured, on the basis of the detected position and distance data, to project either a round or polygonal light marker on a region around the object, wherein this is dimensioned is such a way that its border is indicates a minimum distance to be maintained around the object when driving past, and/or the device is configured to generate a linear light marker and project it on the ground into the region in front of the motor vehicle running by the object in such a way that the distance of the light marker corresponds to the minimum distance to be maintained from the object when driving past and indicates when the motor vehicle can reenter the lane after passing the object while maintaining a safe distance.
