Although it is easy enough to create a broken effect on text, it can be tedious and not as interesting when you need to do it randomly. The script will do all the work for you in just a few seconds. If you don't like the result, run it again as you will get a different result every time.
The end result will be on unmerged layers, so you can rearrange them if you want, but they will also be grouped to make it easy for you to copy and paste onto your next project while maintaining the layers.

For a sample, I created four words that were run through that script. All four words are "accident-related" and in greyscale for you to color. They are in PNG format, so you can use them in a variety of programs.
