1. A device for detecting a danger situation for a vehicle, comprising:
- a scanning device configured to scans a vehicle vicinity and detect a potential danger situation;
a signaling device configured to emit a warning signal upon detection of the potential danger situation; and
a driver monitoring device configured to;
scan a driver reaction to the warning signal;
detect if the driver reaction represents a danger-recognizing reaction; and
verify the danger situation if the driver reaction represents the danger-recognizing reaction.

Abstract
The invention relates to a device for detecting a danger situation for a vehicle with a scanning device, which scans the vehicle vicinity and from this detects possible danger situations, with a signaling device which upon scanning of a danger situation emits a warning signal perceptible to the driver, and with a driver monitoring device which scans the reaction of the driver to the warning signal, wherein the driver monitoring device detects if the reaction of the driver represents a danger-recognizing reaction and in this case verifies the danger situation.
