If you are operating a hired passenger vehicle (taxi, limo, bus, any public transportation, etc.) you have to stop, look both ways, and listen before crossing.
If you are in a private vehicle with friends, family, co-workers, etc. then you only have to stop if you can see a train.
* Correction - Some US states require you to stop at the crossing and proceed only when safe to do so.
The red lights and/or gates may also be there.
Additional: The operators of certain busses, commercial trucks, and truck/trailer combinations, are also required to bring their vehicles to a stop, and look/listen before proceeding across railroad rights-of-way.
