A method of operating a brake assistance system in a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes determining a braking operation as an emergency braking situation, which in turn includes sensing a braking pressure applied to a brake pedal, determining a braking pressure gradient of the braking pressure, and evaluating at least one factor of the driving situation, checking whether that factor indicates an emergency braking situation. If that factor indicates an emergency braking situation, adjustments to a braking pressure threshold value and a braking pressure gradient threshold value are carried out, reducing those threshold values by a predetermined amount. Thereafter, if both the braking pressure and the braking pressure gradient exceed the adjusted braking pressure threshold value and the adjusted braking pressure gradient threshold value, respectively, the braking operation is identified to be an emergency braking situation, accompanying activation of an emergency braking cycle.
