No. But if there are two idler gears, one smaller than the other, say a 12 tooth and a 6 tooth. the 12 tooth idler is the idler of the driver gear which has 24 teeth, making the idler gear rotate 2 times for every rotation that the driver gear rotates. Now, if the 12 tooth idler gear is rotating 2 times faster than the driver gear, then the 6 tooth idler gear will rotate 2 times faster than the 12 tooth idler gear. So, the 6 tooth idler gear is rotating 4 times faster than the driver gear. Let's say that the driven gear has 12 teeth. For every rotation of the 6 toothed idler gear, the driven gear rotates halfway.

How does the gear shift lever mechanism work in a car?

The gear shift lever mechanism in a car allows the driver to change between different gears, which control the speed and power of the vehicle. When the driver moves the gear shift lever, it engages different gears in the transmission, which in turn changes the speed and torque of the engine to the wheels. This allows the car to accelerate, decelerate, and maintain speed efficiently.
