Abstract

A method for assisting a driver of an ego-vehicle in making use of a gap between vehicles to enter a traffic flow at an intersection is suggested, comprising the following method steps: First, other vehicles (2, 3, 4) in the environment of the ego-vehicle (1) are physically sensed using at least one environment sensor (10) mounted on the ego-vehicle (1). Second, a gap size (g1, g2) of at least one gap between two successive vehicles (2, 3, 4) are calculated in a processor (13) based on the sensor's/sensors' output. An ego-vehicle driver's gazing behavior using at least one driver sensor mounted on the ego-vehicle is observed and analyzed and an assistance signal is generated based on the result of the analysis and the determined size of the at least one gap. Finally, a recommendation and/or warning perceivable for the ego-vehicle's driver is output in accordance with the assistance signal.
