摘要

The method involves containing environmental information longitudinally in front of a vehicle (1) using a camera (4). Position information of the vehicle is detected by a position detection device (5). The environmental information and traffic information are recorded. The environmental information and traffic information are stored with reference to the position information in a vehicle external memory (2.1) and/or compared for determining traffic light positions and/or light signal information of a traffic light (3) with the external memory in the vehicle.
