Former Ontario attorney general Michael Bryant has been ordered not to drive any motor vehicle until the criminal charges he is facing are settled.

CBC News on Friday obtained the document outlining the conditions of his release from police custody.

One condition is that Bryant is ordered not to operate or be behind the wheel of any vehicle until the case is "disposed by the courts."

Bryant, 43, was charged on Wednesday with criminal negligence causing death and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death in connection with the death of a Toronto bicycle courier.

The former high-profile Ontario cabinet minister and former president and CEO of Invest Toronto has also been ordered to surrender his passport, remain within the province of Ontario and inform police of any change of address or employment.

According to police, Bryant was driving his black Saab convertible at about 9:45 p.m. on Monday evening when his car and a bicycle ridden by Darcy Allan Sheppard, 33, of Toronto, became involved in a collision near Bay Street and Bloor Street W.

Sheppard's father said Friday that the cyclist's family plans to transport his body back to Alberta for burial.

In a statement released through Aboriginal Legal Services of Toronto, Allan Sheppard Sr. said the family was "deeply saddened" by the death and would not make any further comments on the matter.

Police say the Monday evening incident quickly escalated.

"The cyclist ended up on the side of the car, holding on, and the driver continued along, driving westbound on Bloor Street," said Toronto Police Sgt. Tim Burrows.

Witnesses said the car crossed lanes of traffic to the south side of Bloor Street, still heading west.

Witnesses said the car appeared to drive up onto the curb and apparently brushed against a mailbox, a tree and other obstacles on the street in an attempt to dislodge Sheppard.

Police said Sheppard sustained severe injuries. He was dragged and then run over by the rear wheels of the vehicle.

Sheppard died a short time later at St. Michael's Hospital of severe head injuries.

On Thursday Bryant released a statement declaring his innocence.

"Let me be clear," Bryant said in a prepared statement, "I am innocent of the very serious accusations made against me."

Bryant will make a court appearance on Oct. 19 in Toronto in connection with the case.

Bryant was first elected as the Liberal MPP for St. Paul's in 1999 and won re-election in 2003 — becoming the province's youngest-ever attorney general at the time — and again in 2007. He also served as aboriginal affairs minister and minister of economic development.

Bryant is a Harvard-trained lawyer who clerked at the Supreme Court of Canada and later taught law at the University of Toronto, Osgoode Hall and King's College, London.

His wife, Susan Abramovitch, is also a lawyer. She was with him in the car during the incident.

The couple have two children.

Bryant resigned from his cabinet post in May to become president and CEO of Invest Toronto, which is chaired by Toronto Mayor David Miller.

He resigned his post with Invest Toronto on Thursday.

The byelection to replace Bryant as MPP for the riding of St. Paul's is scheduled for Sept. 17.
