Abstract
The invention relates to a method for determining quantities which characterize driving behavior. Signals indicative of steering angle, longitudinal speed of the vehicle, and two transverse accelerations located one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, are fed to a computing device. The measured quantities are used to derive further quantities in the computing device using vehicle-specific quantities and a vehicle model. Furthermore, at least one of the further quantities is the sideslip angle or the yaw-angle velocity which are determined and output by the computing device.
