It is pretty irritating to see other peoples photos in ‘Photos of you’ section, although it is mainly meant to be used when you are actually in someone else’s photos so that they can be found and placed under one album, some people overdo it, and Tag you in their random photos.
Not just photos, people die in random photos as well. One option you have got to remove these tag is by going through your timeline manually by scrolling down and removing them one by one.
But there is a faster method of doing it in bulk.

In a similar manner you can also remove your tags from posts of other people, that you need to select, that option from the left sidebar on the activity log (refer to the image below)

The activity log is kind of amazing because you can also find things that you have missed earlier if you have commented on it or maybe even like that.
