Sorry, I think you made two mistakes, OP:

[b]I would not have agreed to such veterinary intervention. Too expensive and not worth it if the dog appears to be fine. Thankfully, I have a vet who is down-to-earth and not out for money: he would have treated my dog for his visible injuries, and told me to come back if there were more alarming symptoms. This is pet, and beloved for sure, but not a human. Since I would not explore my dog for possible internal injuries without very very good cause, I would not stick my neighbor with such a bill either.[/b]

It is extremely rude to drop off a request for payment in such a delicate situation without first having the courtesy to explain why you think your neighbor is responsible for the bill. Why was your dog in the street? Was is unleashed and roaming? Was it leashed and was the person holding the leash nearly hurt? All these data points will modify the pressure on the driver to pay or not pay the vet bill.

However you already did what you did. 
Please talk to your neighbor in person and ask for a contribution.
