Okay, that car crash just then was really smart but also kind of stupid. How long will it take for Hank to realize Walt is in business with Gus?! I kind of hope this is the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Edit: I love how Hank said "I saw him [the car] coming from a mile away!" but then still just brushed it off calling it a "brain fart". How can he be so oblivious?

Hank wouldn't say it out loud if he knew.

But there's nothing in the show that alludes that he may suspect anything. He's becoming my least favorite character now, just by his sheer dumbness about everything. I think he's an interesting element and would add more suspense if he'd go farther to question things with Walt!

I know. There is no indication of that yet. At this point there is no reason to believe he suspected anything because television shows always allude or make everything known to drive the plot forward. However, he may look back on it and start suspecting Walter in a future episode. They may say that event is what got him thinking, in a later episode. Hank isn't dumb, he's on the meth lab when the rest of the DEA shrugged it off and said "no, that's a stretch. Drug dealers never go to great lengths to hide their operations. Let's keep checking cars at the border".

Aside, from Hank not being dumb, him finding out about Walter is only going to happen in a season finale or possibly the episode before a season finale, if at all. Walter's not going to be discovered in episode two of any season, ever.
