A fallback safety system for a vehicle equipped with a platooning system is configured to detect an operating state and a functional failure of the platooning system of the vehicle and to detect a distance of the vehicle to a vehicle driving in front with a sensor system of the vehicle. Further, in the case of a detected functional failure of the platooning system during a convoy driving operation of the vehicle controlled by the platooning system, the fallback safety system is configured to initiate braking of the vehicle and to adjust a braking acceleration of the vehicle during the initiated braking depending on the detected distance of the vehicle to the vehicle driving in front.
