I just finished my second week with Roadmaster/Werner out here in California. It is definitely a lot of information to take in. I am doing a 3 week course. This coming week will be my "senior " week. Learning to double clutch is hard with being used to driving a personal vehicle for so long. Getting a lot better though. Don't get frustrated like me. You have to have patience.

Double Clutch:

To engage and then disengage the clutch twice for every gear change.

When double clutching you will push in the clutch, take the gearshift out of gear, release the clutch, press the clutch in again, shift the gearshift into the next gear, then release the clutch.

This is done on standard transmissions which do not have synchronizers in them, like those found in almost all Class A trucks.

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.
