Abstract

A method is described for controlling a vehicle having a pressure-medium-activated brake device which includes wheel brakes and brake circuits on each side, on only at least one rear axle, and having a drive engine which drives the rear wheels of the at least one rear axle, in which the rear wheels can be optionally or automatically coupled to or decoupled from front wheels of a front axle in order to transmit driving and/or braking power. Also described is a vehicle having a brake device which includes wheel brakes and brake circuits on each side on only at least one rear axle, and having a drive engine which drives the rear wheels of the at least one rear axle, in which the rear wheels can be optionally or automatically coupled to or decoupled from the front wheels of a front axle in order to transmit driving and/or braking power.
