A method, device, and computer-readable medium for checking whether a rolling chassis on which a vehicle body is arranged, is being used admissibly is provided. A first specification signal is received which represent a first specification of the rolling chassis. The first specification comprises stipulations for admissible use of the rolling chassis in a motor vehicle. A motor vehicle state signal is received which represent a motor vehicle state. The rolling chassis is checked to determine whether the rolling chassis is being used in accordance with the stipulations for admissible use based on the first specification and the motor vehicle state. A result signal is generated which represent a result of the check, and the generated result signal is output.
