A plate-like carrier element which is intended for accommodating devices, for example, for picking up and processing signals is arranged in a vehicle body such that, in the event of crash-induced deformation of the same in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, damage to the installed devices is avoided. This is achieved in that the carrier element can be fastened on the vehicle-body floor and the connection between the two is such that crash-induced floor deformation, which takes place in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, results, on the crash side, in an upwardly directed tilting movement of the carrier element, which bears the devices on its top side.
