They will, Sways start every time a car, truck or bus coming the opposite direction passes you, every time you get a gust from the side.
They even start when a truck or bus overtakes you.
But if properly loaded, ie weight not at the rear, they will self dampen.
Its the trailers ability to self dampen the sway that determines if it will get worse or better, combined with driver skill etc.
