Why does insurance cost so much?

What do you do when you tell your insurance company not to pay a claim and they do?
About 10 years ago, I hit a works van driven by a lad aged about 18. I was in a fiat uno. I was turning right at a T-junction because a bus had stopped to let me out. The van went round the bus and we met. I appreciate that it was my fault (although I did not admit it to the young lad!!) but I just had a cracked bumper. Apparantly I caused over £5,000 damage to his van. I told my company to look into this - but they just paid up, and would not tell me which parts of the van were allegedly damaged in the accident. My premiums went through the roof. I was told that if I queried it, I would have trouble getting insurance again (from an insurance broker). What should I have done?
Other questions
How do we find out which cars have the lowest insurance premiums when starting to drive/own a car? Is there a way of finding a ball park figure for them? (a friend of mine wanted to know as he was getting his first car aged 23 but did not want to get a car he could not afford.) You do not seem to be able to get a quote until you have the car!

When you are on holiday and lose something expensive, like a camera, should you claim on your holiday or home insurance? How can you make sure you are not paying two sets of premiums for the same thing? (a friend of mine lost his and was told to claim on his household insurance; his household insurance told him to claim on his holiday insurance! I am not sure where it ended up!)
If you are working from home, do you need extra insurance? Would your employer's liability insurance cover you? Would you need liability insurance if you were self-employed but work from home? How do you tell when claims are on home policy and when they are on employers?
Is it possible for wind damage to be covered on insurance, or is it deemed an act of god? What if you have marine insurance, and your boat is blown away or sunk? Is that an act of god?
These are all questions I have been asked to look up on the internet, by my children or personal experience and would love to know the answers! I hope they at least get you thinking for your exams, and wish you all the best!
