Default Good off road video shot through the window?

I'm looking for an off road video for some automated driving research.
Ideally it would:

- be captured through the front window
- be a few minutes long (or separate videos combined)
- have mild terrain passable by a stock 4x4 sport utility (such as dirt
roads)

Any suggestions for AVI, MPG files etc found on the web?

It would probably be easier to make your own video. Video suitable for
automated obstacle and path recognition is far different from a video of
someone cruising down a trail with a handicam held onto a dash. Strap a
video camera to the front of a bicycle, dirt bike or ATV and ride down a
fire trail, through a forest or down a logging road.

Automated driving systems need a camera to be mounted in a consistent
location, it would be almost impossible to judge an obstacle if the camera
was constantly changing locations, angles and focus at random moments.
