1. A driver assistance system of a motor vehicle, comprising:
a first recognition unit that identifies a traffic situation in which the motor vehicle located in a no-passing lane of a multilane road with respect to a further road user detected in an adjacent lane;
a second recognition unit that identifies a road class of the multilane road;
a third recognition unit that identifies a special lane of the multilane road; and
an evaluation and control unit that controls an automated longitudinal guidance of the motor vehicle, while in an automatic driving mode, so as to: prevent the motor vehicle from passing the detected further road user upon identification of the traffic situation by the first recognition unit, except to permit the motor vehicle to pass the detected further road user upon determination of an exception scenario, wherein the exception scenario is identified based on one or more of: a speed of the motor vehicle, the road class, and the special lane.
