A steering shaft for a vehicle includes a hollow outer shaft arranged telescopically and coaxially about an inner shaft and connected in a torque-transmitting manner via at least one rolling body. The rolling body bears against the inner shaft and the outer shaft in a positively locking manner in the circumferential direction with regard to a rotation about the longitudinal axis. The steering shaft includes a securing element fixed on the outer shaft and a torque-transmitting coupling section via which the inner shaft and the outer shaft are connected. For an improved redundant transmission of torque in the case of the failure of rolling bodies, the coupling section has at least one transmission body which engages in a loose positively locking connection with regard to a rotation about the longitudinal axis between the rolling body raceways of the inner shaft and the outer shaft.
