Some companies give new drivers a break, providing that they have taken a Driver Training course and can provide the certificate of completion. Have you ever been listed on someone else's policy? If so, that would help you.

Insurance companies typically charge points to your policy depending on the nature of the claim. Most weather related claims are nonchargeable.

If the insurance company has asked you for information, and you have not provided it, they can cancel your policy. The company must understand the risk (what they are insuring).
