A 22-year-old Ogdensburg man was airlifted to Syracuse by Mercy Flight Medi-Vac early Saturday morning after his car collided with farm equipment on Route 411  in the town of Theresa, authorities said.

Adam J. Lemieux was freed from his 2003 Ford sedan by Theresa, LaFargeville and Plessis firefighters using a hydraulic rescue tool. He was then driven by a Thousand Islands Emergency Rescue Service ambulance to a landing zone about a half-mile east of the accident scene.

According to an accident report, the car was westbound on Route 411 when it swerved into the eastbound lane and struck an oncoming corn planter. 

Here's something to try: pick three addresses out of the phone book and see if you can find them, especially at night, especially if they're on country roads, but even in villages or the city.  And don't dawdle--try to find them FAST, like fire, police and ambulance crews have to. We think you'll be surprised that you'll have to look hard for many address numbers.

IS YOUR ADDRESS VISIBLE? Are the numbers large and thick? Do they stand out from the background color?  Are they easy to find? Are they or the background reflective? Can they be seen from BOTH directions on the roadway? Are they high enough to be seen when there are snowbanks?
