"What's the penalty for carelessly not-quite-killing someone?" Often nothing. (also true if you remove the "not-quite" from your question)
Here's a recent Wisconsin Bike Fed blog post about this issue: Fines Total $248 for Falling Asleep, Killing Father of Three <http://www.wisconsinbikefed.org/2016/03/30/fines-total-248-for-falling-asleep-killing-father-of-three/> http://www.wisconsinbikefed.org/2016/03/30/fines-total-248-for-falling-asleep-killing-father-of-three/ The Bike Fed has been working for years to change this.
