Why is pressure higher in arteries than in veins?
Arterial blood is under pressure from the action of the heart while venous blood, being on its way back, moves more slowly and steadily. You can tell if an artery is cut by the bright red color of the blood and the spurting action of the blood flow. Venous blood is darker and flows evenly.

What is a severed artery?
Blood squirt (blood spurt, blood spray, blood gush, or blood jet) is the effect when an artery, a blood vessel in the human body (or other organism's body), is cut. Blood pressure causes the blood to bleed out at a rapid, intermittent rate, in a spray, squirt, gush or jet, coinciding with the beating of the heart, rather than the slower, but steady flow of venous bleeding. Also known as arterial bleeding, arterial spurting, or arterial gushing, the amount of blood loss can be copious, occur very rapidly,[1] and can lead to death.
What is The slightly lower pH of venous blood compared to arterial blood is caused by?
The influx of carbon dioxide in venous blood.
