Part of the description of a yellow flag is to be prepared to stop. For a slow moving vehicle (race car stuck in 2nd gear/ambulance/tow truck/etc) you should have no reason to stop. It is simply an advisory/informational flag to warn you of a faster than normal closing speed.
Example, a crash occurs at turn 6. The closest wrecker is stationed at turn 2. The wrecker deploys and a white is shown at turn 2 for the slow moving wrecker. Generally the white is 2 stations back, so turn 1 would also be white. Remember the crash is at turn 6, which may be a mile away from turn 1. Since a yellow flag effectively stops racing/passing, it should not be shown as you approach the slow moving wrecker as it works its way to the incedent.
The differences between a white and yellow flag are proper as written. Thank You for your input
