摘要

The invention relates to a vehicle (F1) having an illumination system (BS) for informing a road user (P, F2) of a planned movement of the vehicle (F1) by imaging a light pattern (LM) on a drivable area (BF). The lighting system (BS) is prepared to generate the light pattern (LM) with a first feature, which indicates to the road user (P, F2) that the vehicle (F1) is in an autopilot-controlled operating mode. In addition, the invention relates to a corresponding method (100) for informing a road user (P, F2) about a planned movement of a vehicle (F1). Moreover, the invention relates to a vehicle (F2) with a detector system (DS) for recognizing an autopilot-controlled operating mode and / or a planned driving path of another vehicle (F1), based on a light pattern (LM) that illuminates a lighting system (BS) of the other vehicle (F2). F1) on a drivable area (BF).
