Method and control and recording device for the plausibility checking for the wrong-way travel of a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for checking for wrong-way travel of a motor vehicle on a directional roadway of a road having at least two directional roadways that are structurally separated from each other, the method comprising:
- recording, using an image sensor of the motor vehicle, at least one visual road feature of the road having the at least two directional roadways that are structurally separated from each other, the at least one visual road feature including at least one of;
a width of a component of the road, or a length of a component of the road;
comparing, using a control unit of the motor vehicle, the recorded width or length of the component of the road to a checking value, wherein the checking value is based on a standard regulation for the directional roadway, the checking value including at least one of;
a regulated width of the component of the road, or a regulated length of the component of the road;
determining, using the control unit, that the motor vehicle is located on the directional roadway of the road having the at least two directional roadways that are structurally separated from each other based on the comparing;
upon determining that the motor vehicle is located on the directional roadway, determining, using the control unit, that the motor vehicle is engaged in wrong-way travel based on a directionally dependent property of the at least one visual road feature of the road having the at least two directional roadways that are structurally separated from each other; and
upon determining that the motor vehicle is engaged in wrong-way travel, at least one of;
providing a warning to a driver the motor vehicle, or performing an intervention in the operation of the motor vehicle.

Abstract
A method is described for the plausibility checking for wrong-way travel of a motor vehicle on a directional roadway of the road, at least one visual road feature being recorded and, with the aid of the visual road feature, it is determined whether the motor vehicle is located on a directional roadway. Furthermore, a control and recording device for the plausibility checking for wrong-way travel of a motor vehicle on a directional roadway of a road is provided, having a recording arrangement for recording at least one visual road feature and a determining arrangement for determining, with the aid of the visual road feature, whether the motor vehicle is located on a directional roadway.
