Along with many tens of thousands of dollars.

Why not just sit in the back of a pickup while someone elses is driving? If it's for photos, you should be fine.

Get creative. ;) It's not hard to make booms for cameras. You just need a way to remotely trigger the camera and attach it to the end of a boom. You will need nerves of steel to hang your equipment off of home made equipment though. hehe.

For how long a sequence? For a short sequence, you could have him drive under a bridge over the highway; rent a U-haul & shoot from it...

:lol: For sure. I would be scared to put my P&S up on something made by my hands haha. I think I may use some kind of pool cleaning pole or something like that.
