Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for decelerating a vehicle (10) moving at low speed (vV), in particular by using a hydraulically or pneumatically operated braking system (26), with the following steps: determining, by means of the speed sensor (32), whether the speed (vV) of the vehicle (10) falls short of a predeterminable first limiting value (vC1); if the speed (vV) of the vehicle (10) falls short of the first limiting value, increasing the propulsion torque (MA) transmitted to the drive train (18); and decelerating the vehicle (10) by increasing the braking torque (MB) acting on the wheels (20) by means of the controller (36).
