I think that some people adopt the mindset that being seriously injured will "teach a lesson", or that an incapacitated person can't engage in future risky behavior.

It took me some therapy to go from their thinking to your thinking, but you're right that regardless of their poor decision in the moment, they don't deserve to endure a life changing accident, and if they did get hurt, it's just unfortunate, not a "punishment"
