ABSTRACT:
A speed controller for motor vehicles is provided, the vehicle having a distance regulating function, a locating system for detecting locating data for objects that are in front of the vehicle, and an evaluation device for determining whether a located object needs to be treated as a relevant target object in the vehicle's lane. The speed controller includes a monitoring module that is designed to detect, by reference to the locating data, a situation in which objects not detected by the locating system are within close range and, in this situation, issue a takeover prompt to the driver.
