What would the effects of rapid tectonic movement be?

So once again the world is in the Pangaea formation and the plates are moving on the same trajectory to form the continents that the world is in today (I'll refer to it as Modern). Instead of moving at the rate of 2 inches a year (as it is now) it is moving at a rate that would put the continents in the Modern Formation in about 2000 years. What sort of effects would there be? I think there would be earthquakes, since the ground is shifting, but would there be other disasters and things that impact the environment and people?
