The invention relates to a method for piloting means (13, 14, 15) for driving a motor vehicle (10) according to either of two driving modes, i.e.: —a manual driving mode, wherein the driving means are controlled manually, by the motor vehicle driver (20), and —an autonomous driving mode, wherein the driving means are controlled automatically, by a calculation unit (12) of the motor vehicle. According to the invention, when the autonomous driving mode is exited, the following steps are provided: —acquiring at least one image of the surrounding area in from of the motor vehicle, —calculating a coefficient of visibility of at least a portion of the surrounding area in the image acquired, and c) selecting, depending on said coefficient of visibility, a way to exit the autonomous driving mode, from at least two separate exiting ways.
