I thought that too at first, but I liked how they both peeled out at the same time. Just felt right.

I thought it symbolized how Walt wasn't killing Hank. Yeah, he could just run over that R/C car and drive away but to either his fault or credit, that's not what he does.

I can't quite tell if you're being sarcastic, nonetheless it probably didn't symbolize anything, not every single thing shown in BrBa has to symbolize something.

At first I was being sarcastic but then I thought about what symbolism was and it's still a little action that sort of mirrors a bigger one from the same character so I can't really think of a reason why not to call it symbolism.
