You can track where it's going using google maps. Directing the police to it becomes child's play.

I know a few things first hand about SPOT and its short comings. I have used SPOT for all of my motorcycle trips which most are dual sport riding in low populated areas. If you are under a heavy canopy of trees or other obstructive terrain then there is a chance of SPOT not working. No communication with satellites its a paper weight. Plus the yearly charges for the SPOT can add up to a good chunk of change over time. If your resident area PD's have LoJack installed, like mine does, then LoJack is a good option. You only pay a one time fee and its done. Plus LoJack will work in heavily wooded areas plus inside of buildings where SPOT doesn't. Remember nothing is ever 100%!! That's the reason I just pay a few extra $$$ in insurance and make sure my investment is completely covered. It's just property to me and can be replaced. I don't lose sleep at night or over worry about it.
