I am just starting out, and I am trying to do as much research as possible before selecting a carrier to work for. One of the things I would like to check are safety scores. I see that you can look up an individual carrier's safety score on the FMCSA site, but I don't see anywhere that ranks them on a list. Ideally I would like to get a list of mid to large size carriers that accept drivers with no experience, and find out which ones have the highest trend of safety scores.
Is there a site where I can compare them?
If there isn't, I will make a list of these carriers and look up each individual one, and post the results here.
Thanks for your help!
Are there any ranking of carrier safety scores?

There is no high trend of safety.
Workplace injuries or deaths should be ZERO. That is safety. You cannot trend 50 companies who don't wreck or kill people.MosquitoBandito Thanks this. -

If they send recruiters to schools, they are bottom feeders.
If they will allow rookies to train students, they are bottom feeders.
If they have lease programs for rookies, they are bottom feeders.

I recall a old mine report on a wall of a gaurd shack, for some reason it stuck in my head, it was from the 50's

You are very smart to check companys' scores beforehand. Too many people don't think to do that. -
