Abstract

A method for providing aid after a vehicle accident involving a vehicle includes establishing a wireless connection between the vehicle and a rescue center. First sensor data, which is ascertained via a first sensor in the vehicle, is transmitted to the rescue center, while second sensor data, detected by the first sensor and/or by a second sensor of the vehicle, is transmitted to and stored at a data storage unit independent of the rescue center. Contact information assigned to the data storage unit is transmitted from the vehicle to the rescue center via the wireless connection. The second sensor data and/or data derived therefrom stored in the data storage unit is retrieved by the rescue center using the contact information, where the retrieved data is usable to select aid appropriate to a type of the vehicle accident.
