Summary:The invention relates to a method for operating a motor vehicle which has a communications device, a navigation system, and an analysis unit, the method comprising the steps of: specifying, by means of the analysis unit, at least one position at which a demanding driving situation for the driver of the motor vehicle is expected; ascertaining, by means of the analysis unit, the distance of the motor vehicle from the specified position; assessing, by means of the analysis unit, whether the ascertained distance is shorter than a first predetermined distance if the motor vehicle is approaching the specified position and/or whether the ascertained distance is shorter than a second predetermined distance if the motor vehicle is moving away from the specified position; and preventing, by means of the communication device, communication via the communication device if the ascertained distance is shorter than either the first or the second distance.
