Method for determining the relevance of road sections

A method for determining the relevance of traffic information on current traffic-relevant areas (36) in a traffic network for a vehicle (30, 31, 32) at a predetermined position and direction of travel (40, 41), wherein the distance of the vehicle is taken into account for the traffic-relevant range, whereby the following steps are performed: a) calculating (560, 570) the probability that the vehicle would pass the traffic-related portion (36) at free ride, b) calculating (530) a local relevance for the traffic-related portion (36) from the calculated Passierwahrscheinlichkeit for the vehicle, c) filtering the traffic information according to their local relevance, d) using a weighting for predetermined traffic-relevant areas in the transport network, yielding a predetermined, weighted transport network, wherein the weighting is the higher, the higher the respective statistically parked traffic throughput is, and the less alternatives to the particular road section and traffic relevant point . e) inclusion of the current direction of travel (40, 41) of the vehicle (30, 31, ...
