And again they fail to say a single word about all of the idiots in 4 wheelers that far-outnumber the bad truck drivers, including the number of crashes and fatalities that they're involved in...

Except for that little tidbit at the end of the article.
As far as the companies looked up, they all seem to be locals, or mom and pops for that measure.
Either ignorant, or too cheap to keep things the least bit up to snuff.

But, now, when we get someone on the board with DUI's and such, we know where to send them to find a job.

I went to the SafeStat site to get the score for my company. They haven't even had a review since March, 2003. Their latest MCS-150 update (whatever the hell that is) was May, 2009.

After doing some more digging, I found the vehicle inspections for my company: 184 inspections with 31 resulting in OOS to the vehicle.
