    That's it. Use the link. Here is a shot at who I work for and they have a low score, which is what you want in a company.
    http://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/query.asp?searchtype=ANY&query_type=queryCarrierSnapshot&query_param=USDOT&original_query_param=NAME&query_string=245330&original_query_string=BISON%20TRANSPORT%20INC

    If you want to know more, and I'll use the same company for this. Look here.
    http://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMS/Data/carrier.aspx?enc=vDQILcpIjKF6Om3yh+wkeIQjSZn05OV/+YOXNQxo+CE=

    I have been there since 09 and have no problem with my trucks or runs. I told them from day one I don't run at night, and they don't ask me to. I told them if the truck has problems, it get's fixed, and it does. I have been around the block so many times over the last 20 years. And this is where I stay. There not perfect and none are, but I'm treated right, and that's what counts. I don't plan to leave unless something bad happens.

    With these two sites you should be able to find a proper place to work. Keep in mind that this only works for companies that run the US. The US put it out there for all to see, I don't think Canada did that yet. But they should.
