A method of reducing the risk of tipping over in vehicles

In a method for reducing the risk of tipping at least one vehicle lateral dynamics of the vehicle state variable characterizing is determined, and a vehicle stabilizing intervention in the steering system and the brake system used. It is carried out a multivariable control system, two control loops are overlaid in, one of which is the first control circuit to regulate the yaw rate and the second loop control of the lateral acceleration based. Over the first and second control loop both the steering system and the brake system is adjustable.
