Not necessarily "whenever", however there are plenty of occasions where this does occur.
I saw screaming drivers on tweed run 2010, regularly witness anger directed at critical mass (have stopped going lately as a result - it's just no fun), and even have witnessed aggression on club rides and sportives.
It's fair to say a bunch of cyclists, protesting or not, will raise the blood pressure and levels of aggression from a certain mindset of motorist, be it for genuine Clarkson type hateful reasons from them, or just for shits and giggles.
I can see no reason at present to wind these types up further through activity that may be well intentioned, but to a non-cyclist is easily (mis)interpreted as antagonistic.
