  • Publication number: 20080133103
    Abstract: A method is provided for deactivating an automatic starting function of a distance-related speed control system in a motor vehicle. The speed control system performs a distance-related control in relation to a detected target object, and the motor vehicle is also held at a standstill owing to the stationary target object. Upon detection of a moving object between the stationary target object and one's own motor vehicle, the automatic starting function of the distance-related speed control system is automatically deactivated.
