as i understand it they won't trip out for "whiplash" specifically but rather as you said for load on the circuit.
from the FAQ pdf for the the jaguars provided here :

The Jaguar modules have a self-protection feature that do not allow excessive current to be drawn.
This feature protects both the motor and the motor controller from damage. The Jaguar module
typically provides up to 40 A of continuous current to a heavily loaded motor. However, it is capable
of providing much higher currents, but for shorter periods of time. Jaguar provides 60 A for up to
two seconds and provides 100 A for approximately 0.2 s. The 2011 version of the Jaguar firmware
provides a unique LED error code when this self-protection feature is tripped; the LEDs flash an
repeating slow red then yellow sequence.
