Correct answer
The lorry towing the trailer.
The lorry towing the trailer: it is a combination of vehicles, which ranks before a lorry without a trailer under Article 62(1). Simultaneous arrival, no signs or instructions and no steep gradient are specified so that order applies. The greater reversing-distance criterion applies to vehicles of the same type or unlisted cases; it does not replace the order between these categories. Earlier entry or a steep gradient would require the corresponding rules.
