Abstract

The disclosure relates to a method for parking a vehicle in a first perpendicular parking space, wherein the position and/or the orientation of another vehicle is determined in the second perpendicular parking space and, depending thereupon, the target position and/or the target orientation of the vehicle in the first perpendicular parking space is determined, wherein by means of at least one optical detection unit of the vehicle, at least one image of the at least one other vehicle is generated before parking the vehicle in the first perpendicular parking space, and the image is evaluated as to whether a headlight or a taillight of the other vehicle is recognized in the image, and depending thereupon, the orientation of the other vehicle is determined.
