Abstract

A system and method for navigating a vehicle includes a management unit (server) arranged outside of the vehicle for centrally storing traffic information and traffic rules relating to vehicle information. The traffic rules relate, for example, to road closures and restrictions based on vehicle type. A detection unit has an interface for detecting vehicle information of the vehicle, such as at least one vehicle identification number, and is designed to transmit the detected vehicle information of the vehicle to the managing unit. A computing module generates navigation information based on traffic rules stored on the managing unit and vehicle information. The generated navigation information is output in the vehicle by a navigation unit (client).
