Abstract

A method, and related device, for operating a brake device of a vehicle with brake slip regulation (ABS) on roadways with different friction coefficients on different sides, as a result of which a braking yaw moment is imparted to the vehicle during braking, characterized in that, on at least one axle of the vehicle, an absolute brake pressure difference between the brake pressure at the wheel with the higher friction coefficient and the brake pressure at the wheel with the lower friction coefficient is adapted as a function of a steer input, intended to produce a yaw moment acting counter to the braking yaw moment, by the driver and/or by an automatically intervening auxiliary steering system.
