Former San Francisco 49ers star Tim McKyer reached a deal Friday to settle his hit-and-run case.
McKyer, 60, was arrested in Florida last month after allegedly crashing into five cars before fleeing the scene.
Officials said Friday they would drop charges against the former defensive back, who won three Super Bowls during a decade-long NFL career, if he successfully completes a pretrial diversion program.
According to court documents obtained by DailyMail.com, McKyer must complete 16 hours of community service and take four hours of defensive driving courses.
In addition, McKyer must also pay $100 by May 16, when a plea conference is scheduled to assess whether he has met the requirements.

Charges against the 60-year-old will be dropped if he meets the terms of the deal
McKyer had reportedly been jailed after being charged with five counts of leaving the scene of a property damage accident.
He was also issued a criminal summons for leaving the scene and a traffic violation for failure to report.
The alleged incident took place on February 18 before McKyer was arrested in the early hours of the next morning in Riviera Beach, Florida, where he allegedly crashed his Tesla into five vehicles in a parking garage.
McKyer then left the scene, where police said the parked cars were all damaged, some of which were ‘unusable’.
McKyer parked his car on another level of the garage before leaving. When police tracked him down, he reportedly smelled of alcohol and had trouble with his balance.
The 60-year-old was reportedly taken into custody before being sent to hospital. There, McKyer admitted to being the sole driver of the vehicle that evening.
McKyer played for seven different teams during an NFL career that spanned from 1986 to 1997.
He was part of the 49ers team with Joe Montana that won back-to-back Super Bowls
He joined the league with the 49ers before leaving San Francisco in 1989. The 60-year-old later played for the Miami Dolphins, Atlanta Falcons, Detroit Lions, Pittsburgh Steelers, Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos.
McKyer finished on the winning side in back-to-back Super Bowls during the early years of his NFL career.
He was part of the 49ers team, alongside Joe Montana, that defeated the Bengals at the end of the 1988 season before tasting glory again the following year against the Broncos.
McKyer’s third Super Bowl win came after he moved to Denver in the finale of his 12 seasons in the NFL. The Broncos defeated the Packers in San Diego in January 1998.
