This is an "unofficial" set of videos that feature as screen savers on the 4th Generation Apple TV.  They're basically slow-motion hover shots (by either helicopter or drone) of selected areas that make perfect stunning views. 

Dubai day 2 and 4 and both night videos
LA 1 is the "Judge Harry Pregerson" Interchange from overhead. The other LA videos don't focus on roads (oddly), but LAX is in one of them.
All of the London videos feature central streets between the "City" and Westminster - including shots of the houses of Parliament, the Eye, Tower Bridge, and the Shard. (They all basically follow the Thames)
The NYC ones are a mix.  Two videos (1 day, 1 night) fly up the harbor to Lower Manhattan and towards the ESB/Flatiron District, 1 night video (1 or 3) is an overhead pan of Times Square, another follows Central Park.
The SF daytimes feature the Golden Gate Bridge prominently but there is one moving toward the Ferry Building and down Market. The night videos focus on the Bay Bridge (West span) and cross shots of downtown with Twin Peaks in the background, also one starting at Fisherman's Wharf and following to the right of The Embarcadero.

The rest are either desolate landscape (Hawaii, Greenland, Liwa, China), or landmarks (Great Wall of China and Hong Kong (no roads visible here))

Enjoy and discuss

Ah, the open skies, wind at my back, warm sun on my... wait, where the hell am I?!
As a matter of fact, I do own the road.
Raise your what?

You mean "The City and Westminster". The City is the area that had the Roman Walls. And is the area with city status (that isn't the City of Westminster). That said, you list things in the other order and don't mention anything in the City.

Not really - they more take a straight line, other than Night 2 and 3.
London Day 1 - daytime overhead view from Buckingham Palace to St Katherine Dock
London Night 1 - early dusk horizontal aerial view from St Katherine Dock to Whitehall (slightly to the south of Day 1)
London Day 2 - daytime horizontal aerial view from St Katherine Dock to Charing Cross
London Night 2 - late dusk horizontal aerial view from Tower Bridge to Parliament - this one zigzags over the Thames rather than takes a mostly straight line.
London Night 3 - identical to Night 2 (at least in path)

Yeah - I was trying to say that the flyover started near the City of London, but that isn't exactly accurate either.  Thanks for correcting. :)

I think Night 3 was a accidental duplicate of 2.  Also I was too lazy to detail, thanks for the help. 8)
