The invention relates to a method for operating a vehicle 14 as a following vehicle in a platoon 10 which comprises at least one leading vehicle 12 and at least the following vehicle 14 following the leading vehicle 12. The method comprises an optical detection system 22 of the following vehicle 14 detecting at least one pattern (32, Fig.2) arranged on the leading vehicle 12, a receiving system 36 of the following vehicle 14 receiving, with dependence on the detected pattern 32, data broadcasted by the leading vehicle 12 providing characteristics of the state of movement of the leading vehicle 12, and an electronic control unit 40 of the following vehicle 14 adjusting the state of movement of the following vehicle 14 on the basis of the received data. The pattern (32, Fig.2) is preferably used as an identification code for the lead vehicle, and could be designed as a barcode (34, Fig.2).
