The invention relates to a method of signaling traffic-relevant status information (5), in particular warning signals, to road users. In order to convey warning signals in a simple and reliable manner to road users when these are distracted by terminal equipment, it is provided that the terminal equipment, in particular mobile telephone, audio device, computer, is used for acoustic and/or optical and/or mechanical signaling, during which time the normal function of the terminal is suppressed.

1. A method of signaling traffic-relevant status information to a road user, wherein the traffic-relevant status information comprises warning signals, the method comprising steps of:sensing one of optical, environmental, engine function-, and body function signals via at least one sensor located in or on a vehicle of the road user; and temporarily suppressing normal functions of an existing terminal located in or on the vehicle of the road user while outputting at least one of acoustical, optical and mechanical signals via the existing terminal, wherein the at least one outputted acoustical, optical and mechanical signal output from the existing terminal is based on a sensed one of the optical, environmental, engine function-, and body function signals, wherein the environmental signals correspond to ambient environmental conditions data that includes pollutant levels, atmospheric temperature and atmospheric pressure and the environmental data signals do not include acoustic signals, the engine function signals correspond to engine conditions of the vehicle of the road user, and the body function signals correspond to the road user's body functions, wherein said normal functions comprise two-way communication in both reception and transmission directions of communication.
