Abstract
A method for supporting a vehicle, driving in the automated driving mode, in a merging maneuver from an acceleration lane into a traffic lane of a multi-lane roadway section is provided. The vehicle is connected to a central computer unit via a radio link. The merging maneuver intended by the vehicle is transmitted to the central computer unit via the radio link. Information about the intended merging maneuver of the vehicle is transmitted from the central computer unit to at least two further vehicles located on the roadway section in an environment of the vehicle. Consequently, a merging gap is prepared for the vehicle in the traffic lane by means of one of the two further vehicles. A lane change of road users from an overtaking lane into the merging gap in the traffic lane is prevented by another of the two further vehicles.
