The disclosure relates to a a method for automating driving of a vehicle into a stopping position. The method includes receiving and processing vehicle environment signals, and generating control signals configured to at least partly automate the driving of the vehicle into the stopping position. The processing includes detecting an entry/exit area to be used for boarding/disembarking of a wheelchair user, checking whether the entry/exit area has spatial dimensions required for for the boarding/disembarking, checking whether the entry/exit area is independently traversable by the wheelchair user, and determining a stopping position adjacent to the entry/exit area for stopping the vehicle in response to recognizing that (i) the entry/exit area has the spatial dimensions required for the at least one of the boarding and the disembarking of the wheelchair user and (ii) the entry/exit area is independently traversable by the wheelchair user.
