The answer to the OP's question is easy. It's because there is good and bad in all of them. Like an older fella told me when I was first getting started "Throw them all in a hat and just pick one out, they're all the same". I know that there are some better than others, but for the most part every company out here has happy drivers who make a good living.
No matter what the profession, I am convinced that the driver him/herself has far more control over how successful they will be than any company ever will.
As for UPS having the worst drivers, I couldn't disagree more. Most that I have seen drive about 60 mph everywhere they go and are more courteous than other drivers I see out here. Wal-Mart drivers generally fall right in with the UPS drivers. They don't ever seem to be in a big hurry, yet most I meet seem to make a good living.
There's money to be made with almost every company and the vast majority will allow you to do it safely and legally also. Taking advantage of the opportunity is up to the driver.
