Abstract

A device and a method of controlling a movement parameter representing the movement of the vehicle, includes a first arrangement for detecting at least the transverse acceleration of the vehicle is proposed. The device also contains a second arrangement at least for determining a transverse acceleration component which depends on the transverse slope of the road surface and/or for correcting at least the transverse acceleration of the vehicle at least as a function of the transverse acceleration component. In the second arrangement a status of the vehicle whereby the transverse acceleration component which depends on the transverse slope of the road surface is determined at least as a function of the slip angle occurring on the rear axle of the vehicle.
