ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine is provided with a first pedal position sensor and a second pedal position sensor measuring the position of an accelerator pedal. An emergency running mode of the internal combustion engine is actuated if a failure of either the first or the second pedal position sensor is detected. In the emergency running mode, a rise in the rotational speed or in the travel speed within a prescribed time interval is limited to a prescribed rise value.
