A method for operating a motor vehicle which includes a primary braking system and a secondary braking system, each wheel of the motor vehicle being assigned a wheel brake which is actuatable by the braking systems, the secondary braking system being activated during an emergency braking operation in such a way that each of the wheel brakes generates the same brake force. An instantaneous steering angle of the motor vehicle is detected during the emergency braking operation and the secondary braking system is activated as a function of the detected steering angle.
