16. A device for controlling a driving speed of a commercial vehicle, comprising:
a driving speed sensor designed to detect the driving speed of the commercial vehicle;
a radio data interface designed to detect a wind speed at or in front of the commercial vehicle from a server providing data containing the wind speed at or in front of the commercial vehicle; and
a control unit designed to control the driving speed of the commercial vehicle depending on the detected driving speed and the detected wind speed, wherein the controlled driving speed is an increasing function of the detected wind speed in the direction of the driving speed.
