Abstract: A driver assistance system for the automatic maneuvering of a motor vehicle is designed to determine a driving trajectory in a recording process based on a route which is manually driven by the driver with the motor vehicle, at the end of which the vehicle is in an actual target position with an actual target orientation, and on the basis of the previously determined driving trajectory, to maneuver the motor vehicle with at least automatic lateral guidance. The driver assistance system is characterized in that it is designed to detect, during the recording process, the existence of a desired target position and/or a desired target orientation of the motor vehicle. Alternatively, the driver assistance system receives information about a desired target position and/or a desired target orientation of the motor vehicle, via a user interface, for the correction of the actual target position or actual orientation.
