A method for selecting a driving maneuver to be carried out by an at least semi-autonomously driving vehicle is disclosed. The method includes (i) using measurement data of at least one sensor carried by the vehicle, creating a representation of the situation the vehicle is in, (ii) mapping the representation of the situation to a probability distribution by way of a trained machine learning model, which probability distribution specifies a probability for every driving maneuver from a predefined catalog of available driving maneuvers, with which said driving maneuver is carried out, (iii) selecting a driving maneuver from the probability distribution as the driving maneuver to be carried out, (iv) in addition to using at least one aspect of the situation the vehicle is in, a subset of driving maneuvers which are disallowed in this situation is determined, and (v) this disallowed driving maneuver is prevented from being carried out.
