A method for assisting the driver of a vehicle in detecting suitable parking spaces for the vehicle, a measuring unit detecting potential parking spaces as the vehicle passes by and the length and/or depth or width of a detected parking space being ascertained. A detected parking space is evaluated as a function of the ascertained length and/or depth regarding the possibility of parking the vehicle in this parking space, and the drive and/or braking device of the vehicle is controlled or regulated in such a way that the vehicle is automatically braked if the evaluation of a detected parking space yields the result that the vehicle can be parked in this parking space.
