A method for operating a vehicle with a driver assistance system. A distance function of the driver assistance system regulates a distance from a preceding target object using system interventions in a brake system and/or a drive system of the vehicle to a speed-dependent safety distance, wherein the distance function is degraded during cornering of the vehicle.

In a detection method of a loading anomaly, relationship between a steering control value of a vehicle and a proper turning radius for the steering control value is constructed as a control map. An actual turning radius of the vehicle is calculated by using a self-location detection function of the vehicle. A difference between the proper turning radius and the actual turning radius is calculated by using the control map. It is determined that a loading anomaly of a cargo loaded on the vehicle has occurred when the difference lies outside a predetermined first reference range.

In an aspect, a self-balancing two-wheeled vehicle is provided, having a body, and first and second wheels rotatably coupled to the body. The second wheel has at least one lateral roller rotatable about an axis that is one of oblique and orthogonal to a rotation axis of the second wheel. At least one motor is coupled to the second wheel to control rotation of the second wheel and the at least one lateral roller. At least one sensor is coupled to the body to generate orientation data therefor. A control module is coupled to the at least one motor to control operation thereof at least partially based on the orientation data generated by the at least one sensor.

A roundabout detecting arrangement is disclosed configured to detect presence of a roundabout ahead of a vehicle hosting the arrangement. The arrangement includes a preceding vehicle monitoring unit configured to monitor at least one of a lateral movement and a heading direction of a vehicle preceding the host vehicle, and further configured to generate a first signal representative thereof. The arrangement also includes a processing unit configured to detect presence of the roundabout by processing the first signal. The present disclosure also relates to an adaptive cruise control arrangement and a method of detecting the presence of a roundabout.
