"Pass" and "go past"

Hi

Could you please tell me if the following sentences are equally natural and essentially synonymous? (though I understand that "drive past" and "go past" might create different pictures in the reader's mind)



1) I pass your house every day on my way to work.

2) I drive past your house every day on my way to work.

3) I go past your house every day on my way to work.

Thanks,

Tom

Yes, all natural. #2, as you suggest, means via motor vehicle, where the other two are more general.
