Abstract: A method determines safety-critical traffic scenarios for driver assistance systems and highly automated driving functions for a motor vehicle. A safety-critical traffic scenario has a scenario type, a location determined geographic coordinates, and a safety value. The method includes: recording first data of a vehicle while driving along a route, assigning geographic coordinates to the first data in each case; recording second data for capturing physiological and physical reactions of a driver of a vehicle while driving along the route, assigning geographic coordinates to the second data in each case; transmitting the first and second data to a data evaluation unit; combining the first data and the second data having the same geographic coordinates so that they represent data at a specific geographic location; identifying a scenario for the specific geographic location based on the first and second data; classifying the identified scenario with a difficulty value.
