Abstract

A method for controlling a safety device of a vehicle. The safety device reacts to an imminent collision by an intervention in a guidance of the vehicle. Environment data and trip data regarding the collision object and the vehicle, and intervention data regarding a planned intervention of the safety device, are read in. First and second expected impingement points of the collision object on the vehicle are ascertained; an uncertainty value of the impingement points is ascertained; and a probability value for a location of at least one of the impingement points relative to subregions referred to the vehicle, is ascertained using the uncertainty value. An evaluation of a location of the impingement points relative to the subregions is executed using the at least one probability value and reference data. S control signal for controlling the safety device is generated depending on a result of the evaluation.
