A method detects roadworks. The method includes steps of: receiving a position of at least one first road sign that indicates the reduction of the maximum permissible top speed to a first vehicle on the current road section on which the first vehicle is travelling by way of a sensor fitted to the first vehicle; receiving a position of at least one second road sign that lifts the reduction of the maximum permissible top speed of a vehicle on the current road section on which the vehicle is travelling by way of the sensor fitted to the first vehicle; determining a first assumption for the position of roadworks from the first position of the at least one first road sign and the first position of the at least one second road sign; and determining a probable position of the roadworks by comparing the first assumption of the position of the roadworks with at least one second assumption that has been determined by at least one second vehicle.
