I was taught the latter.
Believe it's appropriate to alternate in the circumstances you describe. However, you must remember you are in The Villages where a large number of drivers seem to be oblivious to the rules of the road or simply prefer to make their own rules as they go. Now, as for the going straight or turning left issue, again you are in The Villages where a vast majority of Cars appear to have been purchased without turn signals. The few that do have them often signal left and turn right or the reverse. Then of course there are those who lull you into complacency by signaling to turn and then go straight.
