Apparatus for a vehicle for blocking display contexts and/or operating contexts, comprising: at least one operating device for detecting haptic user interactions and an evaluation device which is designed to determine a current involvement value at least on the basis of the detected user interactions, the evaluation device being designed to compare the current involvement value with at least one interruption threshold value and to establish a blocking state when the current involvement value reaches the at least one interruption threshold value, and the evaluation device blocking or at least restricting at least one operating context of the at least one operating device, the current involvement value being increased for each detected haptic user interaction, provided that the current involvement value has not reached or exceeded the at least one interruption threshold value, the evaluation device being designed to lower the current involvement value by a recovery value continuously in time or in time increments, characterized in that the at least one operating device is designed to detect the user interaction in a position-resolved and time-resolved manner, and the evaluation device is designed to increase the current involvement value depending on the spatial distance of the positions and on a temporal distance between successive actuation beginnings, the evaluation device being designed to increase the current involvement value by a constant remote actuation value each time an actuation beginning is detected if the spatial distance between the position at which the actuation beginning of the user interaction is detected and the position at which the actuation beginning of the temporally preceding detected user interaction is detected reaches or exceeds a close-range threshold value or if a time period between detecting the actuation beginning and detecting the temporally preceding actuation beginning reaches or exceeds a local actuation time period, and the evaluation device being designed to increase the current involvement value by a constant local actuation value each time an actuation beginning is detected if the spatial distance between the position at which the actuation beginning of the user interaction is detected and the position at which the actuation beginning of the temporally preceding user interaction is detected falls below a close-range threshold value and, in addition, a time period between detecting the actuation beginning and detecting the temporally preceding actuation beginning is less than a local actuation time period, the local actuation value being smaller in magnitude than the remote actuation value. at least one operating device for detecting haptic user interactions
