I was taught the latter.
This is what I was taught both in MI and MD....though the MI teaching took place back in the dark ages.....when you are at a stop sign and when someone else is also at a stop sign it is first come first serve. No stop sign always has right of way and when no stop sign straight through always has right of way...I'm guessing this explanation is clear as mud. Of course living in Metro DC area no one pays any attention to traffic laws anyway...it's survival of the gutsiest! Driver beware etc....I've seen people turn right across two lanes of traffic when they are in the third (middle) lane on a six lane road....
