Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for operating a lane change assistance system, in which a detection apparatus, which is provided on a front corner of the motor vehicle, monitors an adjacent lane in front and to the side, and in which the detection apparatus detects an object on the adjacent lane and, when the detected object is evaluated by way of an electronic computing apparatus, at least one characterizing parameter of the object is determined, wherein at least one function unit detects an intention of a user of the motor vehicle to change lane and a differential speed between the motor vehicle and the object is determined as a characterizing parameter and the electronic computing apparatus generates at least one control signal for at least one further function unit on the basis of the intention to change lane and the differential speed.
