A method for the classification of data includes receiving a first message that is a vehicle-to-vehicle or a vehicle-to-infrastructure message. The first message includes first mobility data of a vehicle. An expected route of the vehicle is determined based on the first mobility data. A second message that is a vehicle-to-vehicle or a vehicle-to-infrastructure message is received. The second message includes second mobility data of the vehicle. An actual route of the vehicle is determined based on the second mobility data. Whether the expected route deviates from the actual route by at least a predetermined threshold value is determined. If the expected route deviates from the actual route by at least the predetermined threshold value, a type of momentary driving maneuver of the vehicle is determined and the first mobility data and the second mobility data are classified on the basis of the type of momentary driving maneuver.
