Open Question: What is the difference I will pay for car insurance with the answers I give ?

Im doing an online quiz with a company that searches for the best car insurance prices. Will I pay more or less if I tell them that my marital status is divorced than if I say that I am single ? When I am employed, it is self-employment, but I am taking at least a year off to work on a music project. Musician is not listed as an Occupation. But I am not just a musician. I am also a lecturer and I use my music to discuss topics on spirituality with people. I was a member of the Clergy for over 20 years, but I am not officially involved with any institution at this time, so my status is not really clear to me, as I could be classified under several headings. Im just trying to find the least expensive rate but I don't understand how the insurance industries criteria works. I was just about to put my seat belt on after grocery shopping, and was leaving the sotre, but a cop saw me and took the opportunity to give me a ticket. I also got a ticket for doing 15 km an hour over the limit. I would rather not mention these tickets knowing that my rate will go up. Do all insurance companies check on this, or if I say I have no tickets, is there a chance that this will not be assessed ? What will be the difference in what I will pay if I select any of the the following options for Driver's Occupation : 1. Not Currently Employed 2. Retired 3 Teacher
