If you aim next to a lamppost / pole, the crosshair suddenly jumps straight on it, even though you are not aiming there.
I aimed left next to the pole but crosshair jumped straight on it
The shot should actually go left of the pole without hitting it. But because the crosshair is bugged that way FOR YEARS it always hit the pole. Specially on maps like berlin / stalingrad that happens very often making it very difficult to hit the target

That bug drives me crazy i swear its f…ing annoying i hope they can fix it with the upcoming major update
It’s not a bug. There is a parralax between the gun and the sight for tanks, which means that were you aim is not exactly where the gun points. This is particularly relevent for close distance

Its not a bug 
This is where the gun is aiming in comparison to your POV
look at the screenshots
crosshair in on point like supposed to be
I switched here one millimetre to right and crosshair switched hard to the right on the pole. normally the crosshair should be on same point like in the screenshot above.

Bro… the crosshair is where your GUN will hit. There is now an OBJECT in the way

another example
I should be able to snipe through the ladder and the pole because the tank grenade is not that broad
but instead of being able to do so, the croshair instant switch straight on the ladder OR the pole
I tested that with caliber 75mm. As you can see above a soldier could easily stay between both (enough space) and a soldier is thicker then 75mm. So I should be also to shot through the gaps even on higher position but there is no possibility to do so. The crosshair hardlock either the ladder or the pole which makes it impossible to hit a target if it would cover behind. The crosshair does not recognize that there is enough space between both hitboxes.
Hope that one is more understandable
What do you not understand after people already explained?
It’s actually a huge aid for the players since it informs you if you gotta hit/brush the pole or not.
Yes it helps you to understand you will now hit the pole. Not a dead-on hit, but touch it!

maybe you won’t understand. look how many space there is between both. even a human could move through so a 75mm tank grenade should pass there, too
and now gona tell me why I am not able to shot through both even if the tank grenade is thinner then a human. the game does not recognize the space BETWEEN both and instant lock and hit either the ladder or the pole - and exact that is not correct!
That it what I wanted to show / explain to you! If a person can stand between both, then the game should provide the same with a tank grenade - shooting through which is not possible ingame but its possible in real life .
jesus.
From how your tank is positioned, you can’t possibly make that clean shot between the ladder and the pole.
See?
You don’t understand there’s a parallax between the gun and the sights for tanks.
This is not how it works:
