No, they don't. The trailer is, at least for the purposes of <G32>, also known as the robot-robot interaction rule, considered part of the robot. And, if there is bumper zone contact against unprotected robot, it is considered to be incidental bumper zone contact according to <G32-C> and therefore not a penalty. Note that if the contact is excessive or violates some other portion of the rule, a penalty may be assigned anyway.
Know the rules before you act on them/publish misinformation.
