Abstract
A subject matter of the application relates to a method for determining a speed of a vehicle. In one embodiment, the method includes ascertaining a first value of a distance traveled by the vehicle within a time interval on the basis of data ascertained by at least one first revolution sensor of a first tire of the vehicle and a second revolution sensor of a second tire of the vehicle; ascertaining a second value of a distance traveled by the vehicle within a time interval on the basis of data ascertained by a position-determining device; and comparing the ascertained first value and the ascertained second value. If a deviation between the ascertained first value and the ascertained second value exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the method includes classifying a speed determined on the basis of the ascertained second value.
