What is the law about driving with your high beams on during the daytime?
The laws vary from state to state. I'm sure some states have laws that prohibit this. They can be pretty blinding during the day as well as night. Here is my common sense view. Never drive with your high beams on, unless it is night and you don't have oncoming traffic. Don't use high beams when it is foggy. Don't use them during the day. My gosh, they make special low power daytime running lights for daytime use. If you don't have these, use your low beams.

It depends on what you mean by police vehicle. A vehicle with blue (or red depending on the locality) lights, a siren, and police markings? No, that would be illegal, at least in my state, and probably all others. In Tennessee, it's illegal to have blue lights or any police insignia on a vehicle unless it's an authorized law enforcement vehicle. You can however, purchase a vehicle with the same engine, suspension, and other specs as a police vehicle. A friend of mine bought a police spec vehicle a couple of years ago with everything except the blue lights and police insignia.
Is it illegal to have police lights on your veihical?
What colored lights are used for what varies by state. Typically, you need a permit to display red or blue lights on your vehicle (and, in some states, green, as well). Red flashing strobes can be used on the back of a vehicle without it being an emergency vehicle, only so long as they flash simultaneously - this is why taillight flasher units which alternate between the brake lights and reverse lamp concurrently on both sides are legal for non-emergency vehicles.
