I think the issue is taking the tracker inside your garage/house where the police can track it (it is a tracker after all) while in your possession. A better approach would be to pull over into the shoulder on the highway, remove it there, leave it on the side of the road, and drive off. Then if they want it they can drive out to go get it. "Sorry officer, it must've just fallen off my car while I was driving."
I doubt so, at least with the special powers (and immunity) they have. That would be like saying that if they fly a drone into my property I could shoot it down and salvage its parts. I'd probably be jailed for destroying police property although it's their device that was actually trespassing. It's a complex matter, but with police involved in one side one should expect to lose anyway.
