PTl's safety director John Mueller is a long time member here on EO. Perhaps he will chime in and answer any questions for you.
I can't answer your specific question but I can tell you that John Mueller is a stand up guy. He wouldn't associate with undesirables. The fact he's been with them so long says at the very least it is a decent company to be with and safe to put on your list of possibles. Good luck with your research.
No help either but worked some of their brokered freight a few years ago and remember them as one of the good ones.
Thanks for all of the kind words. Lawyers will tell you, and have told me in the past, that I am a poor judge of character. Yes I have hung around with some undesirables. 
I'm really trying hard to be a better person.
NoFear - my opinion is biased because of my affiliation with Premium. I think we are THE company to be with if you are a solo straight truck. For years we operated the majority of our trucks with solo drivers. These trucks have done well in that capacity. I asked our reporting guru recruiter Brian Otto to run a report for the straight trucks. The report was done for the past 6 months from today's date and yielded these results for solo straight trucks: The average pay per loaded mile was $X.XX, the average pay per "all miles" was $Y.YY. Since we all understand that expediting is not all about "miles" - it is about revenue to your truck - the average weekly settlement for these solo drivers for the last 6 months was $Z.ZZ.
....to get the answers you will have to speak with a Premium Transportation Logistics recruiter. Being a moderator I know that I can't tell you to call 1-800-661-3166 and press extension 207 for Brian Otto, extension 142 for Anne Keel, or extension 112 for Scott Holcomb. Nor can I tell you if you are out on the road and see a big black Sprinter van wrapped in "Premium" garb that you can speak with Lenny Belcher.
Again, thank you for the kind words.

Isn't all freight ONE WAY?

Yes it is.
No such thing as a backhaul.

Cattle cars get back hauls.
Not in my van they don't! Lol
