Abstract

See full text

A method and an arrangement for warning road users of potential danger areas caused by a vehicle that is or is intended to be carrying out a driving maneuver use a control device that retrieves the steering angle of the vehicle by at least one steering angle sensor, retrieves the direction of travel from a driving speed selector and, from the steering angle and the direction of travel, cyclically determines a future road space that will be occupied within a specifiable time and speed in the event of maintaining the steering angle using a steering model of the vehicle accessible by the control device. The information thus obtained about the future occupied road space is used to control at least one projection device such that at least a part of the future occupied road space is made visible by a light projection onto the surface of the ground surrounding the vehicle.
