(1) In this Act:
"base", of a driver of a vehicle or combination, means—
(a) the place recorded for the time being as the driver's base in the work diary kept by the driver; or
(b) if no place is recorded as mentioned in paragraph (a)—the garage address of the vehicle or towing vehicle of the combination, as recorded by the road transport authority or a corresponding road transport authority; or
(c) if no place is recorded as mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b)—the place from which the driver normally works and receives instructions.
(2) To remove any doubt, if a driver has 2 or more employers, the driver may have a different base in relation to each employer.
(3) To remove any doubt, if a driver is both a self-employed driver and an employed driver, the driver may have 1 base as a self-employed driver and another base as an employed driver.
