Abstract: In a method for the operation of a transverse guiding driver assist system of a motor vehicle, a road banking information is ascertained as a function of a change in a deviation of a transverse course of a road surface from a horizontal. A future road course is determined from environmental data and/or operating data of a motor vehicle, using the road banking information. A lateral track deviation is determined as a result of a change of a road banking, using the road banking information. At least one transverse guiding parameter is established from the future road course and the road banking information to determine a steering intervention. The lateral track deviation is then corrected by using the transverse guiding parameter.
