A drive device includes a drive source; a rotatable member gear, fixed on a rotation shaft of a rotatable member, for being rotated by transmitting thereto a driving force from the driving source; a follower gear, including a pair of gears which are coaxially disposed with each other and are rotatable at the same rotational speed by rotation of the rotatable member gear and including an urging device for urging the pair of gears in rotational directions opposite from each other, for being rotated at the rotational speed higher than that of the rotatable member gear; a rotation detecting device, including a single flag rotatable together with the follower gear and including a detecting portion for detecting passing of the flag, for detecting rotation of the follower gear; a computing portion for computing rotation fluctuation of the rotatable member gear from a signal of the detecting portion; a storing portion for storing a computation result of the computing portion; and a driving source control portion for controlling said driving source on the basis of the computation result stored in the storing portion.
