Claim 4:
5. The method of claim 3, wherein the set speed is set to the medium speed value when, at a beginning of the checked route ahead, there is an area with the free-flowing traffic state having a route length that is smaller than a predefined route limit value for the area with the free-flowing traffic state, and when
immediately after the area with the free-flowing traffic state there is an area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state, the route length of which is greater than the predefined small route limit value for the area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state and smaller than a predefined large route limit value for the area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state, and immediately afterwards there is an area with the gridlocked traffic state, the route length of which is greater than the predefined route limit value for the area with the gridlocked traffic state, or
immediately after the area with the free-flowing traffic state there is an area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state having a route length that is smaller than a predefined small route limit value for the area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state, immediately after the area with the slow-moving- and/or congested traffic state there is an area with the gridlocked traffic state having a route length that is smaller than the predefined route limit value for the area with the gridlocked traffic state, and immediately after the area with the gridlocked traffic state there is another area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state, wherein the another area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state has a route length that is smaller than the predefined small route limit value for the area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state, or
immediately after the area with the free-flowing traffic state there is an area with the gridlocked traffic state having a route length that is smaller than the predefined route limit value for the area with the gridlocked traffic state, immediately after the area with the gridlocked traffic state there is an area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state having a route length that is smaller than the predefined small route limit value for the area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state, and immediately after the area with the slow-moving and/or congested traffic state there is another area with the gridlocked traffic state, wherein the another area with the gridlocked traffic state has a route length that is smaller than the predefined route limit value for the area with the gridlocked traffic state.
