A method of stabilizing a motor vehicle, preferably to prevent a vehicle from rolling over about a vehicle axis oriented in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle. To do so, a quantity describing the transverse dynamics of the vehicle is determined. This quantity is compared with at least one characteristic value, in particular a threshold value, for this quantity. For the case when the quantity describing the transverse dynamics of the vehicle is greater than or equal to the characteristic value, a speed of the vehicle is reduced to or maintained at a preselectable speed value at least by braking measures on at least one wheel and/or by engine measures and/or by retarder measures (SR).

1. A method of stabilizing a vehicle to prevent the vehicle from rolling over about a vehicle axis oriented in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle, comprising the steps of:determining a first quantity describing transverse dynamics of the vehicle, the first quantity being determined at least as a function of a speed of the vehicle and a yaw rate of the vehicle, the first quantity not being determined as a function of the output of a transverse acceleration sensor; comparing the first quantity with at least one characteristic value for the first quantity; and when the first quantity is at least equal to the at least one characteristic value, performing one of the steps of reducing a speed of the vehicle to and keeping the speed at a preselectable speed value by performing at least one of the steps of: implementing brake measures on at least one wheel of the vehicle, implementing engine measures, and implementing retarder measures.
