In a method for adjusting a braking system in a vehicle, a collision of the vehicle is detected and a driver-independent brake intervention is performed. In a first step, after the collision a check is performed to see whether the wheel speed of a wheel is reduced, for example, through a jamming in the wheel housing, in which case in a second step at least one second wheel in the vehicle is decelerated in order to prevent a uncontrolled swerving of the vehicle.
