Abstract: A control system for use in a motor vehicle is used for monitoring a current driving situation of the motor vehicle, based on surroundings data of the host motor vehicle in the current driving situation, obtained from at least one surroundings sensor situated on the host motor vehicle. The control system is used to recognize lanes, lane boundary lines, lane markings, and/or other motor vehicles in an area in front of, to the side of, and/or behind the host motor vehicle. In addition, the control system is used to determine at least one driving parameter for each other motor vehicle present in the surroundings of the host motor vehicle, based on the provided surroundings data, and to generate a plurality of possible trajectories for the future travel course for each of the other motor vehicles, based on the driving parameter determined in each case.

Abstract: A method is presented for controlling a motor vehicle (10). Initially, driving maneuver data containing information concerning multiple possible, different driving maneuvers of the motor vehicle (10) are generated and/or received. Traffic data containing information concerning at least one undisturbed predicted trajectory of at least one further road user (20, 22, 24) are generated and/or received. An influence of the at least one driving maneuver on the trajectory of the at least one further road user (20, 22, 24) is determined, based on the driving maneuver data and the traffic data, and a characteristic variable is ascertained that describes the influence of the at least one driving maneuver on the at least one further road user (20, 22, 24). In addition, a system (34) for controlling a motor vehicle (10) is proposed.
