Veins carry blood towards the heart. So veins operate at a lower blood pressure since the blood has lost considerable pressure traveling through the arteries and capillaries. And there are valves present in larger veins keep the blood from flowing backward and because the blood flows more smoothly. In the arteries the blood flows with jerks and under great force. The veins are also placed more superficially whereas the arteries are usually deeply placed in the body.
