The invention relates to a method and a device for transitioning a vehicle traveling with transverse guidance assistance into a driving state with a reduced collision risk in the event of a driver emergency, wherein the speed of the vehicle is greater than a predetermined threshold speed, the method comprising the following steps: - detecting a hands-off situation of the driver in a hands-off phase; - outputting a hands-off warning; - performing a warning escalation in an escalation phase if there is no response to the hands-off warning; and - reducing the vehicle speed in an intervention phase to a speed which is less than or equal to a threshold speed, the vehicle being kept in the current travel lane if there is no response to the warning escalation.
