A brake-by-wire braking system for a vehicle having at least two wheels which are able to be braked is described. The braking system comprises at least two brake actuator units, each of which can be associated with one of the wheels of the vehicle which are able to be braked. The braking system further comprises a brake actuation unit for actuation by the driver for braking, having at least one sensor for detecting an activation of the brake actuation unit by the driver, an acceleration actuation unit having at least one sensor for detecting the activation of the acceleration actuation unit by the driver, and at least one electronic control unit which is adapted to operate one or both of the brake actuator units in order to bring about a braking force at an associated wheel. The control unit is adapted to operate the brake actuator units on the basis of an activation of the acceleration activation unit in the event of a fault or failure of the brake actuation unit.
