The invention relates to a method for controlling a trailer driven by an electric motor, comprising the following steps: defining a distance between trailer (102, 700) and towing vehicle (101) as a neutral position, measuring a deviation of the distance between the trailer (102, 700) and the towing vehicle (101) from the neutral position and outputting said deviation as a distance value, braking the trailer (102, 700) in an electrically actuated manner if the distance between the trailer (102, 700) and the towing vehicle (101) is reduced by at least a first distance value in comparison with the neutral position, braking the trailer (102, 700) in a mechanically actuated manner if the distance between the trailer (102, 700) and the towing vehicle (101) is reduced by at least a second distance value in comparison with the neutral position, wherein the second distance value is greater than the first distance value, accelerating the trailer (102, 700) by means of the electric motor if the distance between the trailer (102, 700) and the towing vehicle (101) is increased by a third distance value in comparison with the neutral position.
